Our second spotlight feature is on our Queen of Mountain & OC Co-Founder, Holly Heffinger! Read on to see some of her fave things to do, see and eat in Chicago and beyond!

WHAT YOU LOVE ABOUT CHICAGO:

I love that Chicago is a melting pot of diverse and unique people who are generally kind and compassionate.
I love the supportive environment for my family and myself. We have built an amazing community of friends who support us and love our kids.
I love that it’s centrally located for both my personal and professional life. I can easily access my friends and family who live all across the country and our business is able to service clients all across North American in a quicker and more cost effective manner.
I love the energy and culture that the city brings while also housing quaint urban neighborhoods that foster approachable and laidback living conditions.

WHAT I DID THIS SUMMER:

We took a cross-country road trip with Fritz and our kids where we introduced them to Yellowstone (Fritz’s favorite place) and Sonoma (my favorite place).
Girls weekend with two of my best friends in Kohler and Chicago.
Spent a week at our cabin in Northern Wisconsin with my parents, Fritz’s parents, our Grandmother and our kids. I love that our kids get the opportunity to be with both sets of grandparents at one time. It’s unique and super special!
Spent time at the pool and watched my daughter swim without floaties.
