Girl Bosses of Bethesda! Take 2

This year I turn 40 years old (I can't wait). A friend said today, "You must be so happy with all the success that you have achieved before 40." Its funny, when you work for yourself you don't see the success. You see the good days and the bad. You see the grind, the hard work, but most of all you feel your passion.  

I had so much fun introducing you to a few girl bosses of Bethesda last fall. I'm lucky to have so many amazing entrepreneurial women in my life. It was so cool to be able to highlight these fabulous ladies; I couldn't wait to introduce you to a few more.
