This week's guest is Lindsey Johnson who joins us from Louisville, Kentucky. Lindsey is the Founder and Creative Director at Lush Life Productions - the first dedicated Bartender Advocacy Agency. Along with her work at Lush Life, Lindsey has gone on to found and manage Camp Runamok, a Bartender Summer Camp hosted on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail and Portland Cocktail Week, a hospitality worker focused program dedicated to helping people take the next steps in their careers.

Now in its 17th year, Lush Life continues to set industry standards for best practices in bartender advocacy and engagement, and Lindsey works daily to ensure hospitality workers have access to education, entertainment, and opportunities that would be out of reach otherwise.

Lindsey is originally from New York City, but currently lives in Louisville, Kentucky where she owns Expo, a cocktail bar, with her partner, Nickle Morris. They have two cats, Onions and Shallots, who wish Lindsey would travel less.
