In this episode of BBOF, Kourtney and Kim come into the studio with anxiety high (business life, can you relate?) but by the end they notice that taking the intentional step away and discussing ways to de-stress actually really helped! They get a little off topic with a reference to The Princess Bride and Kim exclaims, "I love men in tights!" But the conversation continues with what stresses them in business and some practices that could make improvements - schedule, stretches, and some more laughter. During the final fun prompt they actually realize that they have found great success in business (looking back over the last 4-5 years) despite not having money, they truly are on to something great in entrepreneurship.

Katie Hanna of Details Matter Bookkeeping & Advisory is back for Part 2 of our conversation about what makes her a boss bitch, her thoughts on the importance of collaboration (even in the same industry!) and protecting your time. This is high level HBIC #BossB*tch energy - not saying, "Yes!" to every meeting because some are not worth the hour off your calendar. Making smart moves and setting boundaries allows you to grow in your business and perform at a higher level. We also balance out the conversation with a talk on hobbies (what are those?!) and which ones Kourtney and Kim would add if they have the time (and money!) Of course, no BBOF conversation is complete without some off-the-wall chat - this time who is your hall pass? Living or dead!
