One of my favorite books. Giving one to every new hire to inspire entrepreneurship, and try to communicate the grit needed to build something special.
Recently built a whole new team where 3 team members are actually former founders too! Over 35 years of founding experience across the 4 of us. Plus a couple other team members with more traditional backgrounds that seem to just get it.
I hope they love this book as much as I do.

Lighting up Times Square for Women’s History Month 🔥
What an honor to be celebrated and to see my face alongside these other badass women. Thank you DealmakeHers for recognizing our work.
Happy International Women’s Day! 🌸
Guess who’s joined the big leagues? 🙋♀️ So pumped to announce my fund’s investment in @MajorLeaguePB & @PPAtour, whose merger was made official today 🔥
That’s not all—we are now part owners of the @Maddropspc major league team. LET’S GO! 🏆
I never would’ve imagined myself so deeply invested in a sport on a personal, and now professional, level. But that was before pickleball 💙💚
6 years ago today, I signed a deal that forever changed my family’s lives. The business I’d started in my kitchen and bootstrapped over 7 years sold for $100M+ 🤯 This was beyond my wildest expectations and not something I had set out to accomplish. I simply had an idea I believed in, one I was excited to keep showing up for every day.
If you’re a founder in the trenches, remember this: You don’t need an end goal or to look too far ahead. Trust yourself. A love for your work and belief in what you are building is your greatest competitive advantage. ❤️
Couples who pickleball together, stay together. 3 things I’ve learned from partnering up with my husband on the courts:
Keep it positive. Encourage one another (even when they’ve messed up!) and avoid blaming.
Assume the best. Don’t see partner communication as criticism.
Loosen up, and allow yourselves to have fun. Appreciate the fact that you both share a love for the sport 💙💚
Love to see a growing number of business grants targeted to women founders.
If you don't know where to start, check out this list of grants (70 & growing!) created by Female Founder World.
2024 is our year 🔥

Great interview with @jaimeschmidt and how she built a multi-billion dollar company, literally starting with nothing.

Introducing She Innovates: a series celebrating women shaping the future through innovation. Join us as we explore their journeys, hear the lessons they learned along the way, and get their insight into the technologies that are shaping our future.
In the first episode, we will be joined by @JaimeSchmidt who is not only the co-founder of BFF but also a serial entrepreneur, innovator, investor, and author. Jaime started Schmidt's Naturals, a natural personal care brand, in her kitchen and grew it to reach 30,000 stores in seven years before being acquired by Unilever. She is an inspiration to us all, and we can't wait to learn more about her journey this week.

Living life is entrepreneurship, at least according to @jaimeschmidt ☺️
We talk about how she grew Schmidt’s Naturals, our Web3 connection via @mybff/@BossBeauties, her book, & how pickleball changed her life.
Thank you, Jaime, for chatting with us!

Finally hung out with this boss beauty IRL ✨
To celebrate our acquisition, Lisa gifted me a ticket to a pickleball tournament fundraiser (she knows the way to a girl’s heart 💞).
After getting to know each other on a deeper level today, I’m even more excited about this empire we are building together. Let’s go! 👯♀️
Alright, Kim from @Pickleball and I are in for Saturday evening, need 2 more! 👀
Who are my pickleballers in Santa Barbara or Montecito area? I’m there this weekend, let’s organize some games 😎
I've fallen head over heels for pickleball 💙 As an entrepreneur, it has been an amazing distraction from the daily grind, a game changer for my physical & mental health, and a fun way to meet new friends.
I want to help more of you experience the same! So I started a lil series for IG where I'll be sharing something new I learn on the courts each week. I'm still a bit of a newbie myself (1 year in), but I play every day and can be your friend in learning ☺️
Come hang out, link below! 👇
