Allison Lanquist

For years, Allison Lanquist had a 24-7 work life. As a public relations and crisis media director, she had been at the “beck-and-call” of reporters who needed information about everything from Service Merchandise’s bankruptcy to the Metro Nashville Airport Authority post 9/11. When news broke, she took calls from the back of a U-Haul truck while moving her house or was roused from sleep at 2 a.m.

“I didn’t know what I wanted to do, but I knew I needed a break,” Lanquist says.
