This week we’re talking to Khadijah Polly about how she took one of the simplest ideas  - Kettle Corn and grew it into a booming business.  Khadijah always had entrepreneurship blood, and she always had a business idea that she was working on.  Not long after getting laid off, Khadijah used a skydiving trip as the motivation she needed to go all in her most recent business idea.  She started making popcorn at home and selling it to office employees as the go-to afternoon snack. It didn't take long before Kay's Kettle Corn took off, and Khadijah started doing events, servicing colleges, and even created a popcorn subscription business.    One of the things I love about Khadijah’s story is how she was able to infuse all of her interests and skills that she learned during here 9 to 5 years into this business.  So for all of us that are thinking: “What can I actually take from my career or business that will make sense for my business idea?” Listen to this episode! If Khadijah can incorporate HR skills into a successful popcorn business, there has to be at least one thing we can all incorporate from our own day jobs!    Here’s what we talk about: How to bounce back after getting laid off  Why keeping it simple is a good idea when it comes to starting a business  Using the skills you have to grow the business that you want    The Glow Up Toolkit Start your podcast - literally everything you need to go from idea to launch with your podcast!   Reach out!
