•  I am still scared of rubbing people the wrong way. In reality, I shouldn’t really care. I  do have a very strong personality.I come from a family full of boastful, loud New Yorkers. The mean what they mean and they say it. Even if you do not like it, you are going to hear it and that is who I am.

• We are already in talks with people from a few other companies that wants to acquire it. I mean that when I started the business. This is my baby, but I am a business woman. So, I would like to be acquired by a P&G or Kimberly Co.
