I’m thrilled to bring you a powerhouse of a woman in today’s episode. Kaitlin Fontenot seriously has more energy than I have ever seen! I wish I could bottle it up and save it for those days when I need a jolt of positivity and motivation.

Kaitlin and I actually met back in 2018 at VenturePOP, a conference for creative entrepreneurs in New Orleans. We had no idea that we lived within 5 minutes of each other, and even work out at the same gym. Well – she works out, and I’m working on improving my gym habit. 

But – way more than being a fan of staying fit, let me tell you all about Kaitlin and why I’m so excited for you to hear her perspective:
