Description

Sometimes the best ideas come to us in the most unexpected places. Maxine Tamoto came up with her skin care brand when she was on the toilet. She pursued that dream and launched Kids Sister Skin Care prior to the release of this episode. With the support of her family and friends, Maxine took a leap of faith and started a company that she is proud of.

Sometimes people wait to be "fully" ready to pursue a dream, but there is no perfect time. Sometimes you just have to muster up enough courage and go for it! 

What Maxine learned is that having a great support system has helped her a ton, but what has helped her the most is to understand that no matter what you do, someone is going to hate it. She had to let go of the fact that she was not going to be liked by everyone. Once she accepted that, she gained the confidence to be herself.

Check out Maxine on Instagram doing her thing with her two companies: @kidsisterskincare (skin care brand), and @malumi.photography (photography account). And the website for Kid Sister.
