They did the thing!!! 💜
After weeks of dreaming big, building confidence, sharpening ideas, and putting in the work, this incredible group stepped into a room full of people and shared their businesses, passions, and creative visions — and WOW, did they deliver.
We’re endlessly proud of these brilliant humans for showing up, taking risks, and absolutely knocking it out of the park. Spokane, keep your eyes on these folks… they’re making moves.
Huge love to our Creative Enterprise coaches and co-instructors, Lu Hill () and Katie Staib, for guiding this year’s cohort with care and encouragement every step of the way.
And a MASSIVE thank you to our program partners for helping make this program possible:
Johnston-Fix Foundation
Bank of America
Washington State Microenterprise Association
Greater Spokane Incorporated
Spaceworks Tacoma
To everyone who showed up and cheered them on, thank you. What a special night. 💫
