While I still like shopping at the market with my scribbled grocery list, my kids’ generation is paperless . Millennials are digital multitaskers on steroids, ordering anything and everything online, expecting delivery five minutes ago. When the pandemic hit, she and her peers instantly pivoted to virtual—there was no learning curve; it was intuitive. My daughter, Niki, was my on-call tech expert.
My daughter is 26 years old and has helped grow the company I built, integrating ecommerce into our portfolio and ensuring we reach multiple touchpoints across a digital landscape. In our mother-daughter duo, I’m the offline girl and she’s the online girl. We converge because you have to be both. I work for passion, she works for purpose. As Mom-in-Chief, I may think I have all the answers, but reverse mentorship is alive and thriving.
