What do you get when you cross an enterprising entrepreneur with someone who also serves as the CEO of their family? A “Mompreneur” of course! Mompreneurs, Dadpreneurs, Parentpreneurs–whatever you want to call a full-time parent who is running a successful business in what little spare time they may have–are very special people. They are balancing the demands of a family with the demands of starting and then running a small business. It’s no easy feat but some of them, like our guests, Suzanne Simkin of PeaceLoveMom and Kristi Gorinas of The Kristi G. Company make it look that way.
Suzanne is the co-founder/owner of PeaceLoveMom, a lifestyle brand which sells products that celebrate motherhood. Everything from t-shirts and hats to other small accessories, PeaceLoveMom is all about products that are both fun and hip for Mom.
Kristi Gorinas runs a company that makes really fun and stylish diaper bags that look more like cute purses and will be coming out with the “Go & Grow Seat” for babies and young kids.
Both Suzanne and Kristi were a delight to have on the show and we discussed everything from kids answering your home office phone to how to work when you’re on the go.
Thanks to Kristi and Suzanne for coming on and sharing some of the secrets of being a successful Mompreneur!
