Join us for an inspiring conversation with Patrick McCaully of Point Man News Creation and Rachel Ott of Varger Girl Design—a husband-and-wife duo who've successfully built thriving businesses while sharing both a workspace and a marriage for over 25 years.

In this masterclass on business, creativity, and life, Rachel and Patrick share their journey from having zero business experience to becoming award-winning entrepreneurs. They open up about the early challenges—from quitting steady jobs to navigating financial stress—and the major world events (9/11, SARS, power outages) that tested their resolve.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• How humour and boldness can transform your PR strategy
• Why "audacity trumps authenticity" in today's media landscape
• The real impact of AI on earned media and graphic design
• Behind-the-scenes stories of award-winning campaigns (including the "Post-Pandemic Primer")
• Honest advice about working with your spouse—including why separate workspaces matter
• Why sales skills are essential for every entrepreneur and social impact leader

Whether you're building a business, navigating a professional partnership with a loved one, or looking to stand out in a crowded market, this episode offers practical wisdom from two entrepreneurs who've mastered the art of collaboration, creativity, and resilience.
