    18: Cadie Bridges-Palmer & Stephanie Fabian on Launching a Yoga Studio during the COVID Pandemic and Moving from Surviving to Focusing on Growth

    Cadie Bridges-Palmer and Stephanie Fabian are the founders and co-owners of Yoga Union Baltimore. As long-time yoga teachers in the city of Baltimore, they weren't initially planning to build a growing business - they just wanted to get their community back after the COVID pandemic. But as you'll hear in this interview, these "accidental entrepreneurs" have built a thriving, community-centered yoga studio that is now a staple of the neighborhood, and they've grown as entrepreneurs who are now considering growth and expansion opportunities.
