Such Determination...
Here is 4 year old Tivi punching out little leather stars... lately this has become her favorite workshop activity. The mallet is as heavy as it looks. She has been handing the stars out to local customers. I love how completely absorbed and determined she is when doing this.
(P.S. Don't worry - we won't actually put her to work making Soft Star Shoes until she is at least 5.)

Growing up in rural Wisconsin, Tricia spent her summers running around barefoot with her sisters and brother. These early memories later inspired her to build a brand which embraced the joy and freedom of childhood with the health and science of minimal footwear. After 20+ years at the helm as C. Elf. O, Softstar proudly transitioned to employee-owned, and Tricia became the C.F.O. at Softstar. She is a frequent expert panelist for both e-commerce and entrepreneurship conferences.
