Becoming mothers is not a limiting career move but is more of an opportunity to design life the way that works for us.
How crowdfunding is a great strategy for some businesses in finding an early audience, testing the market and prototyping.
When choosing between crowdfunding platforms, it helps to go with what the target market is more familiar with.
Having the courage to not postpone launching their crowdfunding campaign, despite pregnancies, is a crucial lesson in business (note: there will never be a perfect time)
The immense groundwork needed to launch a successful crowdfunding platform and getting external help to get it going.
How working with your sister and chief best friend opens up a side of our personalities that they may never be privy to; making relationships all the more richer.
