The 10 Best Quotes From Season 1 of Asking For A Friend
When I started my podcast Asking For A Friend, my main goal was to pass on some of the knowledge I have gained from working with experts in various fields, from hair styling to clothing design to entrepreneurship. Over the course of the season, I’ve been able to talk to everyone from my childhood best friend to my business partner at The Little Market, and I’ve learned so much more than I ever could have anticipated. If you haven’t listened yet, you can find all the episodes right here—there’s a topic for everyone, whether you’re a new mom or a budding photographer. It was pretty hard to narrow down my favorite takeaways from the season, but these are the 10 bits of wisdom that have stuck with me and changed the way I look at everything from giving back to home organization.
