Recently I had a humbling and insightful conversation with my dad about the impact of my business ownership on my children. You see, my children have always grown up seeing me running a henna business, and that tends to inspire them towards business ownership as well.

After a conversation with my Middle Little (who is five years old) about business ownership, I spoke with my dad to share my excitement about her confidence and enthusiasm about owning a business. It was then that he gave me a solid and grounding reminder about how everything that I do as a business owner will inform her (and my other littles’) perceptions of business ownership. In this episode, I’m sharing the advice he gave me with you, too.

[09:42] My dad drops a massive truth bomb on me about how my performance as a hennapreneur is impactful on my kids' perception of business ownership

[12:31] Why as a parent, I have to be careful about not allowing my love for my business to carry me outside of the work-life harmony that I strive to maintain
[18:20] How I try to include my children in my business so that they, too, can feel included in my world as a hennapreneur
