EPISODE CLIFF NOTES:

  • [03:18] Virginia has interviewed many people in her career, but she's a little nervous in this interview.
  • [05:49] When does Azhelle sleep? She gets a lot done using tools and repurposing content.
  • [10:26] We talk about Episode 100 and Azhelle being a child actress on Sesame Street. She's also always been an entrepreneur. She loves potatoes, is allergic to cats and dogs, and was diagnosed with cancer in her late 20s while working at Toys R Us.
  • [13:29] While working, Azhelle discovered that there was a need for information on helping people get started with their toy products.
  • [14:01] Azhelle realized that she should do a business around her toy knowledge, and she started her podcast about the toy industry.
  • [18:02] If you feel insecure, remind yourself that it will pass.
  • [28:02] Azhelle is the most proud of her podcast and the community that it has created.
  • [32:07] We talk about the importance of focusing on what works as opposed to moving to the next thing.
  • [33:32] Azhelle has always dreamed of being a CEO of a toy company. She now has her own business and has discovered the value of living in truth and honesty and being herself.
  • [39:17] Being stuck on growth and revenue over innovation can be frustrating. Profit over quality can be frustrating.
  • [40:48] Is there room for innovation? At the end of the day, profits need to be made. It's like a revenue hamster wheel that can stifle creativity.
  • [41:57] We talk about AI and generating concepts.
  • [45:23] We talk about my 200th Episode wish. Join Toy Creators Academy!
