Failing Forward

Molly Wellmann has a trademark giggle that regulars at Japps can recognize well. But before opening her own bar and being voted the nation’s best bartender, Wellmann faced a devastating loss when her fiancé was killed. Her grieving process changed her, and Wellmann learned to be gentle with herself and starts each day by asking herself: What amazing things will happen today? On this episode, Wellmann also shares how she got her start in bartending, the importance of asking for what you’re worth and why she takes Sundays off.
