I talk with designer and entrepreneur Valeri Stavnitser about her life. She shares how her parents heavy schedules when she was growing up influenced the way she runs her business and life, her very fast journey to religion and how that felt like she was losing herself, taking business personally, and handling copycats of her designs. Valeri Stavnitser is owner and designer of Valeri Chicago. A brand creating hair accessories for women rooted in inspiring women to bring forth their inner confidence and voice in all aspects of their life.
