The Moment With My Baby That Made Me Quit My Job

What happens when you sell the company you built for $105 million—and feel heartbroken instead of ready to celebrate? In this episode of Cake for Dinner, Michelle Grant, founder of Lively and Gorgie, opens up about the emotional reality of selling a business, why motherhood gave her the confidence to become an entrepreneur, and why her plans to slow down lasted just a week and a half. From leaving Victoria’s Secret to launching Lively at 35 and later entering the energy drink industry with Gorgie, Michelle shares how curiosity and listening to her community shaped her next move. We also get honest about raising children while building a company, learning to delegate, being present when your brain won’t stop working, and making sure your marriage gets more than whatever time is left over. Michelle shares the relationship advice that stayed with her—and the daily habit that helps her and her husband stay connected. This conversation is for anyone building a business, raising a family, or wondering whether it’s too late to start something of their own.
