Ep 124 Kari Johnston of Rose City Boutique & Consulting with Embracing the Unknown

Kari is the owner of Rose City Boutique and Consulting. She lives in Springfield, Ohio with her husband, 16 year old son, and their two dogs. Though she spent 14 years in Corporate America, in 2019 she began painting furniture in her yard, which evolved into her selling paint as a vendor, and then in November 2020, leaving her corporate career to start her own business. Her passion is helping creatives both focus on their art and make sure as many people see it as possible. She offers her boutique within which they can sell their work, and her consulting services to help them with their websites, email and social media marketing, and more. Amidst these ventures, she also manages two properties in Ohio as Airbnbs, just to keep things interesting.
