This week on The Dharma Project Stephanie is talking with Alison Kingston, owner of Exit 16 Boutiques.

Alison opened her first store 18 years ago as a Merle Norman Cosmetic studio and has grown Exit 16 to a full-service fashion boutique with three locations. She shares how she started by working the store during the day and as a nurse at night, all while taking care of a baby girl! After hurricane Katrina, Alison's husband pushed her to take a leap of faith and go "all in" on Exit 16, and today they have three successful locations!

Stephanie and Alison also discuss:

• How to balance being a business owner, mother and wife
• The ability to change in order to grow your business
• The key to finding and keeping great staff
• And so much more!
•
