Ever wonder what it truly takes to juggle multiple businesses, especially when family is involved? In this episode of the Mixing Family and Business Podcast, we kick things off by sharing those memorable moments when we felt we had “made it”—from the excitement of buying a first brand-new car without worrying about the price tag, to the quiet pride of paying every bill on time, to the fulfillment found in family milestones that mean more than any business win.
But it’s not all smooth sailing. We dive into some of the greatest challenges we’ve faced—ice storms, extended power outages, and sudden market shifts—and talk about how staying flexible, thinking on your feet, and leaning on your team can turn disaster into opportunity.
Whether you’re looking to build your own business legacy, navigate unpredictable obstacles, or just want a real look behind the curtain of family entrepreneurship, this episode is for you. Tune in to discover practical wisdom, stories from the trenches, and advice on resilience that will inspire you to embrace the journey. See you in the next episode—family, business, and all. Keep mixing and keep thriving!

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
