I have a pair of yellow overalls. If you've seen me in the last six months, odds are good I was wearing them.
I have a three-year-old, and we gallivant. Any given day might take us to a creek, a bike park, a museum, and a coffee shop. These overalls have pockets for all the treasures (and snacks) we find along the way. Function over fashion.
I wasn't planning on bringing them on my recent work trip (because who wears overalls to network?), but my husband chuckled when he saw I hadn’t packed them. He knew I’d regret not taking them, they are basically my version of a comfort blanket. I put them on for the flight and wore them again the next day… to a professional event.
A few months ago, I started building something new, a business that lets me do work that lights me up: helping people build businesses they want to run, with clients they enjoy working with, within the working conditions they need to do their best work.
