Kelsey De Santis and I have a great discussion with Katheryn Basso of KADRI Clothing.  We touch on a ton of topics…from the transition from Marine to Business, patience, difference between wome’s tactical pants and men’s (so much I did not know!).  KADRI, Adventure-tactical clothing for women, by women.
