HN: Energy flows where attention goes…
AZF: Did you always know you wanted to be an entrepreneur? If not, when did you realize it was your right path?

AZF: How do you feel best supported?

AZF: What motivates you to keep going amidst of the challenges that come with being an entrepreneur?
HN: This is what I do. I have no choice. I do it for the collective…the brands inside 58 W Main Street.
