Briefly

I started a business at 16 to make money. Now I'm building generational wealth.
"My mom always told me that I was going to need a job when I was 16. Working hard was nothing new; my mom had purchased a pottery business when I was in elementary school, and I often went to work with her."
"I called the real estate agent and put on my customer service voice so he wouldn't know how old I was. Then, I toured the space and put together a rudimentary business plan."
"My mom bought her first business on a credit card, and while it grew into something successful, it was all because of the sweat equity we put in."
"There were times when they were headed to the mall or the movies, but my dad was dropping me off to work."
Scout Turner, inspired by her mother's entrepreneurial spirit, opened a pottery studio at 16 after realizing traditional jobs were unavailable to teens. She created a business plan and secured a location with her mother's help. Despite financial differences with her peers, she learned the value of hard work and support. The studio thrived for two years, showcasing her determination and the importance of family support in her entrepreneurial journey.
