It might look like it, but there's no such thing as an "overnight success." Instead, it takes YEARS of hard work, sacrfrice and committment to the dream to reap rewards.  Bump Club & Beyond founder Lindsay Pinchuk reflects on her journey building a million dollar brand from the ground up - and all that she learned along the way.

Here's a little more about Lindsay: With $500 in her pocket and a baby in her belly, she left a high-powered job as a magazine publishing executive and founded her first company, Bump Club and Beyond --- a community of resources, support, and educational tools for millions of parents and parents-to-be across the country. In year one, she turned a profit, growing her company to 7-figures in revenue each year and her community to over 3MM users. Less than a decade later, she led her company through an acquisition by a large agency holding company.

Some of the things we discuss in this episode include:

  • Networking and personal relationships
  • Sales as the foundation for her entrepeneurial endeavors
  • The bad boss that pushed Lindsay to quit and focus full-time 
  • The catalyst moment
  • “Can you live with that?”
  • The event that put Bump Bump and Beyond on the map 
  • What made her partnerships so successful
  • Prove your concept
  • The myth of overnight success
  • When Lindsay knew it was time to sell

Keys To Success:

  1. Persistence
  2. Preserverance
  3. Network

Sometimes the journey we call life - can take us on paths and roads we could never imagine. But, getting to a place where we embrace the journey isn't always easy.

In this REWIND episode from 2019, we chat with Craig Robinson (Princeton '83 and older brother to the iconic Michelle Obama) about his #dreamdriving journey and all the important stops he made along the way. Craig shares how the trek from the South Side of Chicago to the suburbs of Princeton University impacted his life and fostered in him an "intellectual confidence" that has stayed with him his entire life. He then reflects on the value of taking RISKS and why the decision to venture back into the world of sports after a lucrative career in banking was one he doesn't regret. Craig also opens up about the major lessons he learned from important people in his life and gives tips for other dream drivers looking to find their way in life.
