Trying to let go and combine vision and business

Jessica, I very much enjoyed your book "Growing Gills". It was so helpful in getting me out of the excuse of "I don't know enough to be that kind of creator". Glad to follow you on all social channels and know about what you're up to!

Look at that attitude! If looks could kill :)
