the lively show: “e-brain,” natural products, & family businesses with kathryn jackson

The Lively Show - Ein Podcast von Jess Lively

Today I've got a fresh new Lively Show for you full of actionable life and business ideas!

I'm talking with Kathryn Jackson, the founder of Protect Your Pumps, a product that protects the soles of your high heels, and the co-founder of Essentially Mint, an all natural beauty product line out of Milwaukee.

In this episode, we tackle the topic of online overwhelm, or "e-brain," as I like to call it. We'll be talking about what to do when it happens, and how to avoid it in the first place.

We'll also be talking about how Kathryn's career has evolved over the years, how natural products have become a big part of her life, and her recommendations for those looking to get more PR for their business or partner with a family member or friend.

This episode is perfect for anyone who struggles at times with online overwhelm, wants to switch to natural products, or runs a business.
