In our second installment of the Small Business Starter Kit series - we’re tackling a topic that’s sometimes tricky, sometimes confusing, but ever-present: taxes. Hosts Austin and Jannese have an insightful conversation with entrepreneur Isabella Rosal who started 7th Sky Ventures , an exporter and distributor of craft spirits, beer, and wine.

Mentioned Mythic Quest episode: Dark Quiet Death The pram in the hall Tim Van Damme XOXO Festival Crazy Boat! Topics Discussed The delicate balance between following established patterns and advocating for innovative design solutions How life circumstances (family obligations, debt, financial security) fundamentally change our relationship with risk The consulting advantage: why outside perspectives have more freedom to propose radical ideas The shifting landscape of design opportunities from the mobile revolution to today's uncertain AI frontier Why designers often self-censor their most authentic work out of fear or practicality Pull Quotes "Every big moment in my career was when I took one of those big swings." "My job is to represent the user...even if it puts me at odds with my team." "Every single good piece of work comes from a genesis of a personal experience." "Risk is a clarification of one's priority list." "I would never do anything to risk my family or my children...nothing would be worth it."
