Slow Stories

Jaime Schmidt — ”Slowing down our relationship to content offers more balance to our lives.”


Listen Later

When she was 31 years old and eight months pregnant, Jaime Schmidt unknowingly began building what would become the industry-leading natural personal care company, Schmidt's Naturals. Her experiences from maker to magnate eventually culminated in her future endeavors, including co-founding Color, a contemporary investment firm, and most recently, Supermaker—a media company and the title of Jaime's new book.
The latter chronicles Jaime's experiences and expertise in building a better way to do business in our constantly changing landscape. In this interview, Jaime shared more about her entrepreneurial journey, the process of writing Supermaker, and what she's learned about leading with value in the businesses she's built—and the stories she's told. This episode also opens with a story contributed by Megan Zink.
