    Success is Sweet

    NBHD Podcast presents Strawberry Blonde Bakery, an absolutely delicious and very popular bakery in Ottawa owned by Jacqui Okum, known for its vegan, gluten-free, nut-free, and kosher treats. In this week's episode, join us as we discuss some of the very human aspects of being a small business owner such as establishing a work-life balance, overcoming challenges such as career changes, the high costs of starting a business, and more. Jacqui shares with us an inspiring story of how despite no prior baking or business experience, she put in the time and effort to learn and grow. Jacqui is proof that in order for dreams to come true, you do not need to be perfectly capable or "ready", you just need to start.  Hosted by Tiana Thomas and Rachel Weese, June 2021.
