A single mum desperate for extra cash on maternity leave took an idea she had from her kitchen table and turned it into a $5.5 million business.

Within weeks, she was filling orders during every nap time and long after the kids went to bed.“I was going to the post office every day with them, just trying to make use of whatever time I had. I sometimes would work until 4am, then start the day when they woke up.

“I missed some milestones like the first steps and saying ‘mama’, and my mum was there for them, helping me look after the kids,” she said. “I do have four employees now, and a new shop front, but otherwise I run the business pretty much as I’ve always done it,” she said. “To be able to show other mums that if they have something they’re passionate about, they can turn it into anything is so important,” she said.

What a great story

That’s awesome 👏

Swapping meals for a drop will do that. Calorie deficit extreme

Well done to her, only cost her the best years of her children's lives and her marriage but hey.

Pretty good.
