Summary

This insightful bonus episode brings the theme of entrepreneurship from a legal standpoint to The Balanced Blonde community. We hope this fact-filled conversation is a helpful resource to all levels of entrepreneurs who listen to this show.

Also, we are excited to bring this episode to any lawyers or budding future lawyers to show that there’s not a one size fits all approach to becoming an attorney. There’s always a creative solution to find your niche & follow your passion.

Grant Atkinson is the founder and managing attorney of Framework Law, a truly innovative and unique firm built for creative entrepreneurs. Grant frames the legalities of brand creation and maintenance in such an accessible and warm way that’s collaborative and not combative. It’s one of the reasons Jordan loves working with him and wants to share him with you all. As a creative entrepreneur herself — who has had to learn the hard way on a few occasions! — Jordan knows just how important it is to have the right people supporting your brand.

They discuss Business Contracts, Businesses Entities, Trademarks, Copyright, Intellectual Property, what NOT to do when you start a business, and other legal box-tickers one should be aware of when creating a business. As a fellow creative entrepreneur with plenty of artistic pursuits of his own, he brings another layer of understanding to those working in this industry. He shares his professional journey, inspirations, and the elements that make his work so special.

Thanks to Beekeepers Naturals for sponsoring this episode. Jordan is thrilled to be partnering with this female-led, clean brand which she has been an avid fan of for so long.

0:00.0	Hi guys, welcome back to the Balanced One Podcast, Solon Fire.
0:16.7	I'm your host, Jordyn Younger, and today we've got a bonus episode for you.
0:22.1	I've been on a roll recording content for you guys, and today I wanted to offer something
0:27.6	a little bit different, but so important for every business owner and entrepreneur, which
0:32.8	is everything an entrepreneur should know legally when they're setting up their business.
0:38.4	So I started my business, kind of, I would say on a whim. I started the Balanced Blonde,
0:43.5	which used to be called the Blonde Vegan in 2013 when I was still in school.
0:48.7	And as I told in Grant in this episode, I was such a creative mind, I'm still such a creative
0:54.8	mind, and I never thought that I would end up being an entrepreneur and a business owner for
1:00.8	almost a decade now. Even though entrepreneurial spirit runs through my blood, both of my parents
1:06.8	are entrepreneurs and have started many different companies based off of what they love.
1:12.5	So I had always seen it around me growing up, but there is a whole legal back end to having a
1:17.7	business. And I know so many people who listen to this podcast are entrepreneurs of some kind,
1:23.7	whether you have a podcast or a blog or your health coach or you have an online shop or an
1:29.6	in-person shop. I mean, there's so many people who listen to this podcast, and I know some of you
1:34.1	listening are also lawyers. So I hope you'll find this episode really interesting because this is
1:39.4	the first time I've had a lawyer on the podcast and not just any lawyer, but my lawyer, Grant Atkinson,
1:47.5	and I was connected to him through a mutual friend when I was looking for some legal help and
1:53.1	looking to trade market everything in my business as well as refine my contracts and talk about
2:00.0	what was best for taxes and so many different things that this creative mind really needed some
2:06.5	help with. And it's just amazing when you're a business and you have offerings that you share with
2:12.7	people to have a legal team on hand. And so I really wanted to offer a practical episode for anyone
