Welcome to The Startup Girl – Unveiling the Heartbeat of Entrepreneurship!
I’m Tanya, Founder of The Startup Girl. Fuelled by a profound fascination with the entrepreneurial spirit, our mission is singular yet impactful: to bring to light the personal narratives and driving passions of business owners and entrepreneurs.
What motivates someone to leave the comfort of the known and dive into the unpredictable waters of starting their own enterprise? Through in-depth interviews and thoughtful storytelling, The Startup Girl explores this question, revealing the dreams, challenges, and triumphs that lie at the core of every business venture.
Our content is more than just interviews; it’s a celebration of the human spirit, the courage to take risks, and the relentless pursuit of purpose. Each story is a mosaic of experiences, lessons learned, and the unyielding desire that propels entrepreneurs forward. These narratives serve not only as inspiration but also as guides for those who dare to dream of creating something of their own.
The Startup Girl is a platform for connection, learning, and inspiration. Whether you’re a seasoned entrepreneur, someone nurturing the seed of a startup idea, or simply a lover of motivational stories, you’ll find something here that resonates with you. It’s a place to discover what drives people to build, innovate, and overcome obstacles—all in the name of bringing their vision to life.
Join us on this journey as we dive deep into the hearts and minds of those who have embraced the entrepreneurial path. Let their stories inspire you, teach you, and perhaps even spark that latent desire to embark on an entrepreneurial adventure of your own.
Welcome to a world of passion, perseverance, and endless possibilities. Welcome to The Startup Girl.
Passion project of home decor, furniture, restaurant/bar and bakery in Sabetha, KS.
In 2017 I opened a brick and mortar home furnishings store with a restaurant/bar and bakery in it. After opening day, someone asked me if I was relieved the planning stages were done. And my honest answer was no, not really. I was going to miss that part the most. I enjoyed the planning and all the details that go into starting a business. From the moment of ideation, creating the vision, writing the business plan, filing with the state/licenses, to designing, purchasing equipment and building the dream team for the company, I realized this was a dream job.
My picture taken the night before the Grand Opening.
The concept for this business was so unique we couldn’t find anything to compare it to. While the aesthetics are different, it compares in a way to Restoration Hardware with the rooftop restaurants that have been added to RH.
I was so excited and nervous about opening day, and yet disappointed the initial planning stages were over. While I no longer own this business, it has led me to where I am today and I’m forever grateful for everyone that helped make this business become a reality. Brick Street Furniture Co. + Wine Lounge is a restaurant/bar with furniture and home decor accents. It’s a beautiful and thriving business and I highly recommend checking it out if you have the opportunity to visit.
Now, along with interviewing successful entrepreneurs and sharing their inspiring journeys, I’ve joined a team as a Senior Advisor at Apex Business Brokers. In this role, I assist clients with the intricate process of buying and selling businesses, leveraging my deep understanding of entrepreneurship to facilitate successful transactions. Whether helping a new entrepreneur find the perfect business to acquire or supporting a seasoned business owner in selling their enterprise, the goal is to make the transition as smooth and beneficial as possible for all parties involved.
