We’re launching Season 2, in honor of Siblings Day, with three super-powered sisters who chased their cravings to start a business together (like, real life Powerpuff Girls on a mission!). Celebrity hairstylist, Sarah Potempa, is the founder of the global, values-driven beauty brand, Beachwaver Co., inventor of one-of-a-kind Beachwaver hair-care products, and co-owner of local Libertyville, IL boutique, B. Bungalow. Her sisters, Erin and Emily, who each contribute a unique yet complementary skill set, joined the Beachwaver founding team (after quitting their respective jobs) and built the company with the strong belief that, together, they could “Dream Big, Make Waves” while empowering women to celebrate their confidence.
Dig in to our special episode, filled with plenty of laughs, positive energy, honest personal stories, entertaining sibling dynamics, and lots of food for thought on how to tap into your entrepreneurial potential to turn your individual and shared dreams into reality. Don’t miss Sarah, Erin, and Emily’s 3 ingredients for living life to the fullest (during quarantine and beyond). We all hope you are staying home, staying safe and healthy, and staying inspired during this challenging time. Thank you so much to our heroic frontline fighters for everything you do. Thank YOU for tuning in to our uplifting show, and for choosing hope when it’s so easy to choose fear.
Happy Siblings Day! Give a virtual hug to your sibling, someone who feels like your siblings, or hug your pet “sibling.”
