What It's About
An update from a company that lifts up kids and families through affirmation cards.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1433
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. Last week we heard from a guy who turns upcycled grains from breweries into delicious snacks. Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from the co-founder of a Canadian business that is all about helping kids and families with self-worth. Their original episode featured early in year two of the program was titled “Mindful Moms Make $70,000 on Family Affirmation Cards.” When two best friends are transformed by affirmations, they bring the love to families and children with empowering products. Since then they have expanded far and wide, been mentioned by Jessica Alba and like so many others, have been navigating the COVID crisis this year. This business is run by two people who do just about everything together. For this conversation, we focused on some comments from Lindy, but it’s very much Anna’s business as well. Listen to today's episode to hear Lindy and Anna's updates...MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
