This is a long shot.
Here I am in 2019, standing in front of our Franklinton home when it was just gravel, studs, and a very special idea!!!

Seven years later, that idea has become a pandemic-proof profitable business welcoming tens of thousands of people through its doors, made national television, and grabbed the attention of investors.

And for the last four years, I’ve been trying to find a home for Makers #2.
Four. Years.
I’ve gotten incredibly close more than once, only to end up back at square one.
It’s been discouraging, but mama didn’t raise no quitter!
The numbers make sense, the margins are strong. I’ve never been a day late on rent. I bring people from other zip codes to the neighborhood. I’m the tenant everyone wants!

If you’re developer, property owner, or know any, please keep me in mind.
Maybe someone reading this knows someone who knows someone. A share could put this in front of the person who has what I’m looking for. ❤️

Our founder’s @tedx_official talk is on YouTube. ✨⛳️

Rock bottom isn’t the end of the story. It’s where you finally see what needs to change, and the greatest transformation of your life can happen. At hers, @meg.pando uncovered something she’d lost somewhere along the way: her love of failure... so what did she do?
Golf.

Stepping into the arena of BEGINNERHOOD transformed the way she looked at failure, growth, motherhood, and entrepreneurship.

🎬 Hear the story in her TEDx talk on THE ARENA OF BEGINNERHOOD, now live on YouTube.
