When Poppy was a baby, she rolled around to get places. She didn’t crawl until after she’d learned to walk. And she didn’t really learn to walk until after she’d learned to run. She went from rolling around on the floor to standing up and running all over the house. It’s like she was more about the momentum than about the coordination.

Things haven’t really changed for Poppy. She’s twenty-nine and still running everywhere—she graduated with an art advertising degree, and immediately opened her own ad business. Sometimes her family jokes that she never really did learn to walk.
