Girls That Startup: 4 Businesses I Made ...

Girls That Invest
About this episode

Welcome back to Girls That Startup, a weekly series where we spill the tea on how to create a seven-figure side hustle - because no one saves their way to wealth. You’re joined by Sim, a seven-figure business owner, and Maia, an entrepreneur in the making.

This week, Sim and Maia open up about their failed business ventures. Sim shares her experience with a sunglasses business that she sold too quickly and undervalued. Maia then discusses her tutoring company that didn't attract any clients, leading her to give up prematurely. They reflect on the lessons learned from these failures and the importance of perseverance and separating personal pride from business decisions.
