What It's About
A flaming hot update from an artist that literally lights drumsticks on fire.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1783
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. Recently, we’ve featured the founder of MomBox. She’s gone from frustrated new mom to CEO of a growing startup! … as well as the founder of Micro Gainz, a system that helps weightlifters break plateaus. The pandemic helped him bulk up his business! Last week, we heard from Bill Simpson, chief tap dancer of HowtoTapDance.com. From his homebase of Melbourne, Australia, he teaches the art of the tap to students all over the world. Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from Ella Cordial-Brockelsby. We first featured her in Ep. 784: Fire in the Hole! Handcrafted Drumsticks Ignite Into Profits. She marches to the beat of her own drummer … she also established this business while she was gainfully employed. As you’ll hear in her update, it ended up being a vital backup plan.
