What happens when you're terrified to show your face on camera but know deep down that your business needs you to show up? In this episode, Krista sits down with ACORN client and NorasPawsomeTees founder Jen Gavalis to talk about her incredible transformation over the past 18 months - from hiding behind her products to confidently becoming the face of her brand. Jen's business was born out of her struggles with mental health and chronic pain, and in this raw, honest conversation, she shares how focusing on what she CAN do (instead of what she can't) led her to create a thriving business celebrating Schuylkill County pride through wearable joy. This episode is especially meaningful as it airs during World Mental Health Awareness Week. Krista's vulnerability in sharing her own mental health story last May prompted Jen to reach out, which led to them working together—and now Jen is paying that forward by inspiring others with her story.
