Nina Othman didn’t start out wanting to found a social enterprise.

Grow The Goose happened because her sons came to her one day and asked for roller shoes.

She didn't give her boys the money. Nina encouraged her boys to put on their thinking caps and be creative in looking for solutions.

Her one idea for her boys turned into the quirkily named Grow The Goose, a social enterprise that empowers kids to be problem-solvers and solution-finders. Her business teaches children how to be financially-savvy while nurturing their entrepreneurial skills. 

Nina also openly talks about the reasons her 13 business ventures failed in the past and what she learnt from those experiences. She used her past to help her redefine her future and the future of her social enterprise!
