Mommy Millionaire Magazine

Early on in our journey, a fellow mom in business recommended BillieJo and I read the book Mommy Millionaire.  It has been one of the most helpful tools we’ve used in navigating our way through this process of launching a product.  The author Kim Lavine has a wonderful “best girlfriend” style of writing.  The book [...]

Roses are Red…

One of my favorite holidays by far is Valentine’s Day.  I love recognizing the ones I love, letting them know how wonderful I think they are.  When I was teaching 5th grade, we would spend the day making special cards for our Moms and Grandmas.  I always enjoyed watching all of the kids take such [...]
