I tell all my kids they should start their own businesses someday. I think it’s an amazing way to make a living, an amazing mindset to have, and it’s a school like no other that you keep learning from all the time.
Besides marrying my wife and having my kids, starting my business is the best thing I’ve done.
And then a little while ago, I realized that there’s nothing stopping them from starting a business now, while they’re young.
Yesterday my 14-year-old daughter Maia became the first to officially launch her business: a vegan cupcake venture!
I encouraged her to start one a few months ago, and in that time she’s experimented with a handful of recipes, doing taste tests with her siblings (who have absolutely loved the process of course). She’s found recipes that worked.
