A decade of connection // STEPH GRANT

Where it all started was wanting to tell my story. Last minute of course; I didn’t know if it was more of a I should tell my my story feeling or and I want to feeling.

When I turned 30, I got this insatiable desire to do something more meaningful. It’s in my DNA to be an entrepreneur, so I went to San Diego, sat on a beach for 72 hours, created a vision for my future, came home, JFDI’d, and was on my way.
