Not only is Lizi a successful entrepreneur (and smart as a whip!), she and her brand also stand as a champion for other small businesses. If she finds a product she truly loves, she is happy to shout it out to her followers—and they respond in droves! The result is a significant difference in the lives of several business owners. “The best way to grow organically is helping each other,” she says. Watch the full video to see why she is so passionate about this part of her business.

Lizi’s career path is no conventional nine-to-five job—there is no clock-out button. She chose this path, and she’s so glad she did, but it can be challenging to find a balance. “You’ve got to eat, sleep, breathe this thing,” she says, referring to her business. “It’s like having a baby.” Lizi offers her best advice to people considering starting their own business.

Once Lizi realized how difficult it was to be a successful entrepreneur—especially when you are raising a family too—she struggled to define her purpose. Then, one day, it became crystal clear. “More than ever, dinnertime is lost,” she explains. “It just came to me—Keep cooking. Your family is worth it.” Tune in to learn how Lizi brings this motto to life and shows her followers how they can too!
