Mark and Sarah Batory may have gone to high school together, but their real connection began on Facebook (thanks Marky Z!). In this episode you'll hear the beautiful story of Mark and Sarah moving to Wisconsin for grad school two weeks after getting married, but ending up working at a pottery studio and learning how you can take studio art and make it a job. After experience a tragedy about a month after moving back to South Carolina, they explain how their business plan was put even further into motion with all of their priorities aligning with the vision of what they wanted their entire life to look like- business and family. With Sarah's business and retail background and Mark's artistic talent, Hollowed Earth has become a bustling studio in Greenville still carrying out their mission of making pottery accessible to anyone. You'll hear about Sarah's lists for Mark, their strategy of sticking to your own turf, and how to acknowledge the fear in business. You'll love this, we promise.
