In today’s show Nicole and Michelle interview their first guest. Dani Schnakenberg is a former “mommy blogger” turned serial entrepreneur. She and husband Josh are parents to 5 children, and she home-schools the two eldest kids. Dani is the creator of Feather & Wild Apparel and she is the co-host of the Do It Scared podcast alongside Liza Wilde. We are blown away by all she is accomplishing before the age of 30 and her nuggets of wisdom.
