KAIJA PACK

The Pretty Boss Mom

Kaija is a widow and a mother of six (LaNeay, Raynard, Richaud, Kaija, Kendall, and Roland)

What inspired your start in entrepreneurship?

My inspiration comes from the desire to be innovative The determination to create a thriving business, gainful employment, and a legacy for the generations of Packs to come

What has been your biggest challenge/failure as an entrepreneur?

My biggest challenge was expecting people to believe in my dream Then accept the fact that my dream is no one else’s responsibility My biggest failure was not believing in myself and being afraid to fail

And how do you deal with it?

I understand failure is not final I realize that challenges create champions I operate by working smart I believe in myself because I have earned my respect and I no longer need to be validated

What does being a Pretty Woman Who Hustles mean to you?

I had the awesome pleasure of answering this question before and I stand firmly on my words: someone gets up after a loss and figures out how to win She has the heart of a lion, the soul of a Champion, the resilience of the Tardigrades, and the Spirit of an Angel A woman, inside, and out A woman who loves herself and others, who believes in herself and others, who is willing to help herself and others A pretty woman has more than a beautiful body or a pretty face, A pretty woman who hustles has a solid foundation and a "killa" mentality I AM A PRETTY WOMAN WHO HUSTLES
