Beyond the Bell: Lifestyle Design for Canadian Teachers

S1E10: Starting a successful retail business from scratch - with Judy Stewart

Anuja Pereira and Dan McMullen

Judy Stewart is a seasoned teacher with the York District School Board.

She has been holding onto a great idea for a business since she was 10 years old - and never took steps to make it a reality. 
During the pandemic, Judy finally took some action and has since built a business that has had success and is scaling at great pace.  All this - with no background or experience in retail business.

As the founder of the shoe line, Tresolz - Judy helps provide beautiful and comfortable women's shoes to those with larger sized feet.  She has filled a huge gap in the Canadian retail market and solved a problem she has been facing since she was a child.

In this episode, Judy shares the fears that held her back, the steps she took to create her business, and the way her teaching skills have translated into her success.
