They say that it can take a village to raise a kid, to have a business, to just get through life as a decent human being. But what happens when you are a business owner AND a parent AND a human? Today on the Nikki Talks podcast, I’ve brought together three entrepreneurs who are also parents, to have an honest conversation about life, parenting and business. My guests today are Eliya Finkelstein, a Funnel Strategist, Conversion Copywriter, and was once dubbed the “Fairy Godmother of Copy”, Bex McKnight, an Inclusive Design Consultant and Creative Director of McKnight Inclusive Design, and Blake Fly, an entrepreneur and 8-time TEDx Speaker.
