Balancing Motherhood and Scaling a Startup with Morgan Smith

Morgan Smith is a mother of three, entrepreneur, and founder of Minnow, a children’s swimwear company.

I spoke to Morgan about what it’s like balancing a burgeoning swimwear company with the demands of motherhood. And the conversation we had covered everything from how her journey began, to how she and her husband navigated the shifting roles they took on as the company grew, to what she’s learned about finding mentors, managing her time as she moved through the early stages of her business, and what she hopes to teach her children as she leads by example in her life and business.

Today We’ll Explore:
