“There will never be a ‘right time’ to take the plunge” with Megan Lundquist and Kristen Sargent — Fem Founder™

Megan Lundquist and Kristen Sargent were co-workers and travel buds who became known for their annual friends’ trip abroad. One year 16 people went on a vacation they planned to the islands of Belize, and that’s when the two decided it was time to turn their travel passion into a business.
