A Local Magazine Thrives

Have you ever stumbled into a new job that felt like destiny? This week's guest, Casey Kaplan, did just that through her journey from tech to publishing. Join us as we sit down with Casey, the remarkable president of Bedford New Canaan Magazine, a local luxury lifestyle publication.

During the COVID pandemic, Casey and her family acquired Bedford Magazine. What started as a pause during the pandemic turned into a revitalization of local media, fostering a sense of community in Westchester, NY, and Fairfield County, CT. This episode explores the creative process behind growing a business with heart, featuring stories of collaborating with family, connecting with local businesses, and the joy of seeing their magazine, which expanded into Bedford New Canaan Magazine, become a staple in the community. As Casey shares her experiences, you'll gain insights into the importance of passion and dedication in entrepreneurship, along with the benefits of embracing unexpected opportunities.

In a world where work and leisure blend seamlessly, we explore the vibrant lifestyle of those who truly love what they do. Casey's narrative is peppered with tales of her accidental rise as a food influencer (@nolagourmand) in New Orleans and the excitement of balancing a fulfilling career with personal adventures. We also reflect on the value of community, friendship, and gratitude in both personal and professional life.
