#9 Jaime Schmidt on Imposter’s Syndrome and Supporting Underserved Creatives

In 2010, Jaime Schmidt founded personal care company Schmidt’s Naturals in Portland, Oregon — right in her very own kitchen. She scaled her company and 7 years later, sold it to legacy brand Unilever. But, if you’ve been listening to our podcast, you know we won't be focusing on that highlight reel. In this episode, Jaime talks to me about the things that didn’t go well in her journey, including a lot of self doubt that she battled before making a 9-figure exit! She’ll also share with us her life post-Schmidt’s — which now involves supporting underrepresented founders through her investment fund, Color.--Love the podcast?
