In the digital world that we're in, you know, negative videos are what goes viral. People are always knocking people down a peg and it's really easy to fall into that. If something bad happens-which, when you own your business, something bad happens every day- it's easy to circle in despair. But my challenge is to look for the positive and figure out how to pivot, and if something isn't working then figure out a different way to get it done.

When people come to the farmers' market, they're here to support small businesses and local farmers. They're excited to learn new things. They're really encouraging and supportive!

After being closed for more than a year, Mike's Pizza has reopened in Flatbush. The Bedford Avenue slice shop shut down in January 2025 after its landlord sold the property. It resumed operations last week at 5 Martense Street, just off Flatbush Avenue. Customers lined up for slices from the same team that previously operated the shop. The reopening comes amid ongoing redevelopment in the area that has led to the departure of several longtime small businesses.
