A bit about Natalie:

Natalie has built a six-figure photography business, started a movement through an online hashtag, #communityovercompetition that quickly became an established company, survived a brain tumor, and is the author of Built to Belong: Community over Competition. This book discusses the importance of community and the lessons she’s learned throughout her entrepreneurial and leadership life. Her other book, Gutsy, released in August, is a guide on how to overcome your fears and be bold in both your personal and professional life.
