She tells us about the struggles setting a work-life balance while growing her business and how we should be unapologetically ambitious but at the same time, not compromise on our life outside the "shop". In other words, how to GO BIG & GO HOME! Links: https://www.instagram.com/c.e.ohm/ www.the-ceohm.com
