In this episode of the Babalata Podcast – Money for Teens, we host Paige Held, founder of Yoga Joint.

Paige’s story doesn’t start with funding, connections, or a perfect plan. It starts with real life. Becoming a single mom in her 20s, teaching yoga while raising kids, and building something out of necessity, not comfort. 

Today, she has built a business worth $55M, with multiple locations across Florida, all starting from a simple idea and a level of consistency most people underestimate.

This episode is about resilience, but more importantly, about turning challenges into a real business.

We talk about:

•  Building a company with no safety net 
•  The reality behind scaling, partnerships, and tough decisions 💰 
•  Why consistency beats short bursts of motivation 
•  Balancing ambition, family, and long-term vision 

Hosted by Eli Bavli (15), the conversation stays honest, curious, and direct, focused on the decisions, habits, and mindset behind building something that lasts.

This episode is for teens, young adults, and parents who want to understand how real businesses are built, not from perfect conditions, but from commitment, discipline, and purpose.
