Welcome back friends! We are so excited for a new episode of Bigger The Bow and this weeks episode looks a little different. Our friends at the Dallas Market Center [https://dallasmarketcenter.com/] asked us to record a podcast, LIVE, in their studio! What a dream come true and a pure *pinch me* moment.

Grayson gets into that with us and really lays out her mission and her *why* with her brand. Colorful designs might not be for you, but knowing what is your style is what you should stay true to. — LINNY CO. earrings are all the rage and the larger styles are soaring right now. How does Lindsey know what is working and what isn't? She will tell you she's a numbers and business girlie first and creative second...the truth is in the numbers. If it's not working, why hang onto it?? Her insight into this is incredibly valuable in this episode. — Lace Collective Co. is a brand that carries a variety for every woman and every style, but how do you know what is going to sell and what isn't?
