Last week I was interviewed by Kiva Leatherman, for her weekly radio show. It was a great interview, more like two friends shooting the you-know-what than anything else. We could have gone on for way longer than 30 minutes, as we had plenty in common from our entrepreneurial pursuits to being Moms dealing with kids [...]
