  • Safety in Numbers!

    After being in the design world for almost 2 decades, I’m soon going out on my own, and being alone, and going at it by myself, there is a lot of fear and uncertainty! With Laura’s amazing guests, her easy way of communicating intimidating and complex business subjects, I feel safe enough to carry on! Safety in numbers, and it truly does take a village, even when you are a village of one. Thank you Laura, for giving me the bravery to carry on with all of your invaluable guidance!
