But now, as she shares in this talk from Tugboat Institute Summit 2020, 20 years after founding her Evergreen business as a new mother, Ingrid has a different view. As she reflects on the many small and big moments of motherhood and entrepreneurship that have led to success and personal growth, she is able to see the through line of bravery in her story and encourages other leaders to do the same.
