If you want to achieve something outstanding and get results you’ve never gotten before, you’re going to have to trust your gut. Latesha Williams did just that.

Latesha is the co-founder of Cards for All People, which makes fun, nostalgia-filled card games that test knowledge of cultural milestones and moments.
