There is a particular
kind of silence that falls over a life when it arrives at a fork in the road. It
is not the quiet of peace, but the hush of a held breath. You stand at the junction
of two paths leading in opposite directions: to tell or not to tell, to leap
or not to leap, to leave or not to l…

There is a particular
kind of silence that falls over a life when it arrives at a fork in the road. It
is not the quiet of peace, but the hush of a held breath. You stand at the junction
of two paths leading in opposite directions: to tell or not to tell, to leap
or not to leap, to leave or not to leave.
In these moments,
time seems to stop, but the heart does not. The heart races. Because you know the

Jodi Scott fell off her bike. That's how Green Goo started. Riding the same Texas road she rode every day, her laces caught in the spokes, and she looked up at an overgrown driveway leading to a white Southern colonial estate she'd somehow never noticed before. The next day, a for sale sign appeared. Her realtor grandmother told her she'd never qualify for the loan and that no one goes to Kyle, Texas. She bought it anyway. That one bed and breakfast became four B&Bs, four wedding venues, and three event services companies. Then she got pregnant, found a first aid cabinet full of ingredient…
