Trigger warning: Infant Loss
This episode is dedicated in loving memory to Shaundi Adrian Mann, June 25, 2013 - Sept 4, 2013.
In this episode, Cheryl and Colleen chat with Katy Mann, the creator of IndyWithKids.com and author of the book 'Indianapolis Scavenger.'
Katy shares her experiences of building a hyperlocal website that has become a valuable resource for families in Indianapolis over the last 14 years.
She opens up about personal challenges, including the sudden loss of her child, and how this tragedy reshaped her business approach from being a solo venture to a collaborative community effort.
The conversation also explores the challenges of balancing a growing family with a side hustle, the importance of resilience, and the ways in which small acts of kindness can significantly impact others.
Katy provides insights into how she monetizes her platform, the growth journey on social media, and the transformative experiences that have shaped her entrepreneurial journey. Listeners will gain inspiration from Katy's authenticity, community spirit, and unwavering dedication to her mission.
