Embracing Failure: A Pathway to Small Business Success

Embracing Failure: A Pathway to Small Business Success

Entrepreneurs often find that the road to success is fraught with challenges, and sometimes the most valuable lessons come from failure. Jadis Montijo, the founder and CEO of Motivo Scar Care, exemplifies this journey. His initial venture, The Kind Pen, provided him with significant success but was also a source of critical learning experiences. Overspending in his personal life and navigating a failed acquisition taught Montijo essential skills that he later applied to his current business.

Montijo acknowledges the unique challenges he faced as an LGBTQ founder, noting that less than 1% of venture capital funding goes to LGBTQ entrepreneurs, despite their track record of building successful businesses. His advice for aspiring entrepreneurs is simple yet profound: "be yourself." He emphasizes the importance of authenticity and self-discovery in the entrepreneurial journey. By taking the time to understand and embrace his true self, Montijo was able to lay the foundation for Motivo Scar Care.

His story serves as a reminder that while the path to success may be rocky, embracing failures can ultimately lead to growth and achievement in the world of small business.
