The Sweet Victory of Starting Your Own Business with Candace Nelson

My fav, Marshalls, is sponsoring today’s episode reminding us where we can get the good stuff for less (advertisement by Marshalls). On this week's episode of Networth and Chill, I'm sitting down with the queen of cupcakes and founder of Sprinkles, Candace Nelson. Opening your own business can feel like a huge risk, especially when you are throwing a complete career change into the mix. But when Candace lost her job as an investment banker, she did just that, and opened one of the most recognizable cupcake businesses in the country. I ask Candace what it was like to pivot her professional career into something completely new, what drew her to baking, and what some of the biggest challenges she faced were when starting out. There is so much that goes into opening your own business, and I ask Candace what advice she has for those looking to head down that path. Got a financial question you want answered on a future episode? Text me or leave me a voicemail at 908-858-3410. Special thanks again to Marshalls for sponsoring this episode!
