‘This is Baby Turia. She used to sit in her ‘office’, and print out business cards, and fax ‘important documents’,’ the entrepreneur wrote.
She added: ‘I’m not sure who I actually sent these to. I’d just dial random numbers. Whoever got them, I hope they filed them appropriately, following the specific instructions I wrote on the cover page.’
’I think Baby Turia would be so stoked to know Grown Up Turia has a real business. One she loves. One she’s proud of. And, yes, one with real business cards!’
