We talk about profitability in more than one way. Meaning we're not looking at just money, but the profitability of doing what we love and the profitability of relationships and the profitability of communication and all the other aspects of business and life where profitability matters. Michele (2:22) 

 

I recommend to any designer who is new in the city or just trying to get more local exposure is reach out to your local magazines, they're always looking for content if you can come to them with great projects to photograph or photos, and a story idea. Lesley Myrick (11:18) 

 

I want to encourage all of us the profitability of taking the step even when you're afraid like there is sometimes doesn't always work out. Michele (19:30) 

 

When I have been open to adventure when I have been open to what God has next for us what opportunities come up, it has been way more fun. It's been terrifying, and horrible and awful and difficult too. Don't get me wrong. But it has been way more exciting and gratifying. Lesley Myrick (26:36)
