Lily Born is the creator of the Kangaroo Cup. When Lily Born was 8, she noticed that her grandpa, who has Parkinson’s Disease, was knocking over his cup a lot, creating spills that Grandma needed to clean up. Inspired, she came up with the idea for the Kangaroo Cup: a three-legged cup that won’t tip over. After prototyping for several years, first with hand-moldable plastic and then with clay at a pottery studio, she had a cup ready for production. Now a seasoned 13-year-old, she has sold tens of thousands of the cups all over the world.
Lily shares her story about self confidence what she has been through at such a young age. She also shares how she overcomes these issues to be the power house preteen that she is today. Tune into this episode to listen to her story.
