Tell us about yourself
My name is Lynn Palin, and I began my business journey a little over 5 years ago after relocating to my hometown of Woonsocket, RI, from NYC to foster and then later adopt my nephew and raise him as my son. I built my business, so I could prioritize him and still work.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I would have to say my biggest accomplishment as a business owner is the ability to prioritize my son. If we are talking numbers, I saw my ROI after 3.5 months. I have developed a luxury skincare line and was recently featured as one of the entrepreneurs on the reality incubator show, The Blox.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
