  • Calley from Talk On! | Episode 46
    Feb 19 2025

    Welcome back to Kent in Good Company! In today's episode, Calley, the founder and owner of Talk On! If you have any children in your life, this is a really cool episode for you to listen to. I had no idea the types of resources Talk On! offers for kids including speech therapy and occupational therapy. Calley had a crazy story about how the business survived during the pandemic shutdown. I can’t imagine doing that kind of work in any way but in person, but somehow they managed! Crazy!

    In this episode, Calley and I talk about Board and Bevy. We have an episode about that business! You can find it in the Season 2 list here: https://mainstreetkent.org/discover/in-good-company/season-2/

    Calley told me about an event they have coming up at Board and Bevy on March 2nd! Mark your calendars and RSVP at this link: https://www.boardandbevy.com/event-details-registration/talk-on-speech-therapy-at-board-and-bevy

I love Tina’s story because it just epitomizes the scrappiness that our Kent business owners have. Salon NeXt had small beginnings, but now it’s on arguably the most historic street in downtown Kent!
