Mikey & Nikki — Mon, 02 Aug 2021 23:08:00 -0700

We back y'all! We have been so busy creating a mini-empire but we finally got some time to talk on the mic about the last 3 months. Dealing with the last 15 months has been a lot of shared trauma. A lot of build-up, optimism, letdowns, and depression. The whole spectrum of emotions. With this episode, we reflect on our story and how we are doing now with the opening of our new business venture, Atomic Dancewear!

We hope you enjoy the story and join us as we continue this new adventure into podcasting!
