In this series, we sit down with our fellow entrepreneurs who share the raw, unfiltered stories of their beginnings—navigating the ups and downs, facing financial hurdles, and forging a path to success.
These candid conversations reveal the grit and determination it takes to turn a dream into a thriving business. Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or a seasoned business owner, you'll find inspiration, insights, and a sense of community in each episode.
In this episode of Wherever You May Roam, Heather sits down with Angie Flickinger, founder of AK Waterbody, for an open conversation about the unique paths they’ve taken to grow their businesses. They discuss the differences in scaling Heather's Choice and AK Waterbody, the importance of diversifying sales channels, and the inspiring process of transforming hobbies into thriving, purpose-driven brands. Heather and Angie also tackle a deeply personal topic: coming to terms with the idea of having an exit strategy for the businesses they’ve poured their hearts into.
Angie Flickinger is an entrepreneur and founder of several small businesses in her rural home community of Wrangell, Alaska. She is the Founder of Waterbody, a skincare brand that shares the beauty of Alaska’s wild nature through natural body care products infused with wild Alaskan ingredients. She also helps fellow e-commerce brands grow their businesses through email marketing with her consulting business Angie Lynn Marketing.
When she’s not steeped in the world of small business, Angie unplugs by spending time outdoors exploring her big beautiful backyard - paddling, hiking, biking, and enjoying all that the gorgeous landscape of Southeast Alaska has to offer.
Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur or already on your business journey, this episode offers honest advice, valuable lessons, and plenty of inspiration.
