What It's About

A lit update from a family-run candle making business.

Notes from Chris

Episode 1566
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them.

This was also going to be Tax Day, as in the deadline for Americans to file their tax returns—but because the world is still in a topsy-turvy state of affairs and the IRS is behind, they’re giving everyone another month or so. Bonus!

Last week, we heard from the founder of Budget Savvy Bride. She recently said “yes” to serious growth!

Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from the owner of an eco-friendly candle supplier. Profits are smoldering! I really wanted to say he has risen from the ashes, but that would be a better fit for Failure Friday, our other weekly segment. Also, once candles burn, you can’t really get them back.

What’s happened since? Let’s hear directly from them. I’ll be back at the end to wrap us up.

Listen to today's episode to hear Chris and Cynthia's updates...
