Wondering what it’s like to be self-employed and deal with insurance?
Pinterest magician Kate Ahl joins us to talk about just that. Kate has a type 1 diabetic daughter AND owns her own business.
As she tells us in the episode, the worst thing is dealing with supply companies. Insurance by itself is an ordeal when it’s not privately held, but doing it when self-employed is a whole other beast.
