Featured Quotes: “Thought leaders are the ones making stuff up. That’s what makes them thought leaders.” - Ingrid Edstrom “We need to treat each other as humans first… We attract the people to us that we want to invest our time with by being our full, true, authentic selves.” - Ingrid Edstrom “The last human freedom is our ability to choose our attitude in any situation.” - Viktor Frankl, quoted by Ingrid Edstrom Behind the Story: Ingrid Edstrom’s journey began with a desire to help struggling small businesses in her community. Frustrated by a lack of recognition and a toxic work environment, she started her own bookkeeping business during the 2008 market crash.
