QUOTABLES:

“I loved the idea that my clients would come in and tell me how I was always consistent. How I always took care of them. That made me thrive. So feeling and seeing how I made my clients feel and look just kept me going. So that kept me alive.”

“If you want to be bigger, if you want to get over this hump, you have to pay the people to do the work that you know you can't do. I can't do this. I can't do marketing. I can't do creative. I just don't know how to do certain things. And while if I apply myself I'm sure I can do it, it won't be at its full potential.”
