I am Sigrid Olsen and I am a fashion
designer slash retreat later I started
my business and I was a little just a
company of one and then it grew and grew
and grew to the hundreds of people and
meetings and all kinds of stuff like
that that was complicated and now I'm
back to just being me a company of one
eye out source a couple of things but
it's a wonderful feeling to be able to
just come up with an idea and do it

b-school came to me at a time in my life
where I was undergoing a difficult
period in my business and I needed
something really positive to look
forward to and to get up for every
morning and put all because I have so
much creative energy I needed to put it
into something that I knew would move me
forward and b-school was exactly that
after b-school I was able to really
embrace my past because people know me
as a fashion designer but also embrace
my present and future with the the yoga
and art retreats that I do and what I
found was getting women together that's
like my thing
I love gathering women together and in a
creative environment I found that I
could meld the two my creativity is what
I'm teaching but it's also what I'm
offering in the products that I design
well part of b-school is to communicate
who you are in a very genuine way and I
think more than anything else that's
what I gained from it and I'm really not
done I mean I'm a work in progress and
b-school helped me just say that's okay
that's what's happening you're evolving
you're changing you're taking people
that know you for your product and
offering them an experience and honestly
that's so much more meaningful if
somebody comes to me and they have
actually asked me about b-school and
what I like about it it is so custom
oriented towards who you are as a person
and in taking everything all your
strengths your skills your passions your
love your joy and bringing it into a
very practical realm b-school is really
helping me create ongoing business that
I love and that I'm passionate about and
sparks joy
