## Resource

Ivy Mix — Co-Owner of Whoopsie Daisy and Fiasco!, Beverage Director-Partner of Titán, and Co-Founder of Speed Rack — shares how her hospitality career began. What started as bartending in Guatemala to pay off a bar tab eventually led her to New York, where she was repeatedly told she didn't "fit the image." Instead of giving up, Ivy opened her own bars and co-founded Speed Rack, the all-femme bartending competition that has raised nearly $2 million for breast cancer research. She also shares why true success isn't working every shift—it's building a team that thrives without you.
