Sincerely, Your Small Business

Dylan and Joan of Critter Butts

January 01, 2024 • Jess Norby • Season 3 • Episode 8

Critter Butts is the dream of queer, neurodivergent sweethearts Dylan & Joan. Since 2021, their work has been an ever-evolving representation of their spicy brains, their identity as transgender queers, the creatures they turn to for joy, and the humor that keeps them afloat in the midst of a crumbling culture.

Listen to this episode as Joan and Dylan share their thoughts and experiences around:
- being aware that you're neurodivergent and how that plays a role in the way you run your business
- the surprise of having a community impact that stems from your business
- developing the awareness and self-esteem that your business is not for everyone, and that's OK
- being seen in your time of need and using that experience to help others
