Go Solo recently asked co-founder @kandacerae abou Go Solo recently asked co-founder @kandacerae about their biggest accomplishment in business so far. ⁠
⁠
"I'm proud of creating a business that puts people and families first. When I first started my business, I had no sense of personal time. Over the years, it became clear that it was my responsibility to set the tone for our business and how we wanted to treat folks who worked with and for us. I began to put guardrails on my time, creating a strong work/life balance and supporting this in others whenever possible. For example, when we've had employees, we've focused on creating an atmosphere where they also had support for work/life balance, whether it was creating realistic time schedules or taking time off for maternity leave. Or, when we work with clients, we attempt to find out when they are working and respect that time." - @kandacerae⁠
