QUOTE OF THE WEEK
“We’re doing so much of this for the very first time and I think the big hurdle we’ve been very open about overcoming is managing. We’re constantly learning how to be better managers and better CEOs, knowing how to communicate better. We’re really good at saying no because it keeps us focused."
--Carly Zakin, co-founder of TheSkimm
