Director's Cut of Heather Kaminsky: Icy Fresh Seafood

Traveling for Work

Welcome to a very special edition of Traveling for Work, I'm your host, Thais Miller. Today, March 8th is International Women’s Day and I want to take this opportunity to say how grateful I am to have the special friends and family in my life. I am a better woman for having them in my life to laugh, cry and be there for me through all the ups and downs. I consider myself so many things: a mother, wife, teacher, harpist, podcaster, voice actor, entrepreneur, friend and sister— these are the many hats that I juggle on a daily basis, and I’m sure that many other women juggle on this day. So, my hats off to this special day. Let’s all continue to move forward. And on this day, I have a confession to make: my first episode of this podcast, with my friend Heather Kaminsky of Icy Fresh Seafood, was an assignment for an introduction to a podcasting class that I attended. The original assignment (back in October of 2023) was to interview someone for 5 minutes for our podcasts and then publish it on Buzzsprout. I ended up going above and beyond as Heather and I discussed her exciting adventures juggling her own hats as a wife, mother and entrepreneur and our original interview was over 30 minutes long. I ended up attempting to cut it down to as close to 5 minutes as I could without compromising too much of her stories…So now on this day, as I think about all of these wonderful women in my life, I want to celebrate Heather Kaminsky by releasing a director’s cut of our original interview complete with bloopers at the end to honor her hard work during the shrimping season working on the boats for her company Icy Fresh Seafood as well as our friendship. So, now I present to you: the original director’s cut of Heather Kaminsky, Chief Executive officer of, as she puts it, “everything” for Icy Fresh Seafood.
