Spirit of 608: Fashion, Entrepreneurship, Sustainability + Tech


May 17, 2016

If there's one thing I hope you walk away with from today's show, it's this: your one thing - that thing you pour your energy into and focus on completely and build a creative and entrepreneurial life out of? You know, that thing - well, it doesn't have to be one single thing. In fact, as the career path of today's show guest and Bitte co- founder Maia McDonald Smith illustrates, there is wisdom in variety - and sometimes, for some creative professionals, choosing variety may be the best path not only for the day to day, but also for the business bottom line. Along with talking multi-tasking, which Maia has mastered and then some, this episode delves into one social media savvy entrepreneur's experience getting in early on a platform and watching her numbers soar.
