From baby swaddles to moonshine, the sky’s the limit to building a multi million dollar business.
Co-founder and former CEO of Aden & Anais, Raegan Moya-Jones, shares the unique path that led her to building a $100 million business in global baby products, and another in the premium moonshine industry.
Raegan reveals some of the most important skills needed to be a successful in business and shares some her top pointers for up-and-coming entrepreneurs. She explains why we shouldn’t necessarily quit our day job right away in our haste to walk the entrepreneurial path and how to work through our fear of failure.
I’m never the smartest person in the room, I’m never the most creative person in the room, I’m never the most connected person in the room. I just had a real passion for what I was doing – I believed in it, and I was prepared to work really, really hard to make it happen.

I would much prefer to try and give this my best shot and fail then to sit here paralyzed with fear about what I don’t know and actually give up too soon.
