13 year old Aleksander has taken his passion for dogs and launched a business with his Mom. This episode will make you smile and fuel your passion and desire to succeed as an entrepreneur.
In this episode with Amy and Aleksander, a mother and son partnership, started Wagging Riders, a dog bus business that picks up your dogs from your home and takes them to the dog park for daily exercise.
The three of us discuss:
*the life skills young entrepreneurs are learning,
*where does the entrepreneurial spirit come from,
*what mindset is needed
*how to permit yourself to build the size business you want to build.
This episode will refuel you, make you smile, and feel good. No matter where you are in your journey of growing your business, remember others are watching and learning from you and your business is making a difference in the lives of those around you. I hope that is inspirational to you to keep going during the tough times.

My name is Jennifer Kok, and I’m a profit and growth advisor for service-based women entrepreneurs. I help women business owners make smarter, more strategic decisions so they can grow profitably, pay themselves consistently, and avoid burnout.
Because the truth is, business owners make decisions all day long, but the ones that really matter are often the hardest ones. Should I hire? Raise my prices? Invest in marketing? Let go of a draining client? Expand, or simplify?
Those decisions carry weight, and they can impact your time, your profit, your energy, and your long-term growth.
That’s why I created the Focused Growth Collective, a virtual mastermind for women business owners who want support making the kinds of decisions that move a business forward. Yes, we talk strategy, but we also look at the bigger picture like mental load, health, profit, and long-term sustainability.
My goal is to help women build businesses that pay them well, support their lives, and still feel worth leading 10 years from now.
