We are all formed in part by our familial collections of secrets, intrigues, and myths. By engaging with ...

QUOTES FROM MY INTERVIEW WITH ALEX:
"I wanted to be in the fashion industry for as long as I can remember. I wanted to own my own business since I was 6."
"What is the worst that can happen? I took three months off and wouldn't have a job when I got back, and that actually did happen."
"Traveling is refreshing and rejuvenating. Just a little more challenging to get up and go nowadays."
"Reflecting on the person who did that originally and how brave I was then... Looking back at 25-year-old me, I think—WOW! you did that."
"It's always worth the risk and I thought, well, what's the worst that can happen?"
