Hi Laura and Julie,
It was great hearing about how you two worked together to create this awesome product, how you've each identified your talent and put your skills into a package of success. I think that must be an awesome source of support for one another to succeed. I also loved what you said about your parents giving you the sense that you could accomplish anything you set your heart on. What a gift they gave you! Best of luck to you in the future.
