From teacher to entrepreneur: putting family first with Jennifer Cao

The Quit Work Podcast

Jennifer Cao’s parents came to America from Vietnam, and worked hard to raise five children.

They put a lot of emphasis on education as a path to a better life.

So Jenn became a teacher, until she realised that she was giving herself up so much to her kids at work that she had too little left for her own kids at home.

Now she and her husband are building a business around his chiropractice, as well as selling onesies on Etsy and raising their young children.

We talk about the tensions between work and family, and the hard realities of starting a business.

You can connect with Jenn on Instagram @coffeeandjenn and check out her Etsy store CoffeeandJenn.
