Voyage Ohio Magazine featured Tracy Teuscher, APR as part of a local stories series on Ohio entrepreneurs. We talked about entrepreneurship. We talked about overcoming barriers and trauma. We talked about how love, creativity, and stories have the power to change the world. And, yep, we talked about bees.

Whos Who Professional Women

Part of The Dear Mark Project to bring more transparency to advertising and communications, this casual conversation will have you thinking, laughing, and imagining ways to elevate communications practice, and lead with greater clarity, creativity, and authenticity.

We talk about the gifts of introversion, we explore how to use social media and tech as tools – rather than allowing them to use us, and we identify ways to change our mindset so we can protect our precious time and energy for the things and people that matter most, including ourselves.
