A podcast for business owners who know there has to be a better way.
We’re Janel and Anna, small business owners learning in public as we turn our company, Strange Birds, into a worker-owned co-op.
Each episode, we talk with the people reshaping the future of work: co-op founders, movement builders, legal advocates, and small biz owners stubborn enough to believe work can actually work for us.
