From a Wheelchair at 14 to Running a Family Farm
S2E7 - Welcome to Be Life Changers – https://linktr.ee/kathycoatesevents
Sharing Local Love… stories of purpose, impact, and growth in business and life.
----------
Taylor Jezik fell out of a third-story window at 14 and spent her first year of high school in a wheelchair. Today she runs Charlie Hayes, TJ Events, and Aria Anneliese, and co-owns Hometown Olathe Family Farm. She sits down with host Kathy Coates Newman to talk motherhood, raising entrepreneurial kids, choosing collaboration over competition, and why supporting local isn't just good business, it's how you build a legacy.
