Teen-Inspired Innovation: Has your teen son ever given you a business idea or insight that was so brilliant it made you think, "Why didn't I think of that?" What was it, and how did it influence your business?
Yes! Maximus is super creative in his thinking, and constantly curious, so he regularly shares innovative ways in which things can be done differently or newly created. One of his ideas I am holding close to my chest until such time that I can potentially put it into motion!
Admirable Traits: Teenagers (tweens) often teach us more about life than we realise. What's one thing you admire most about your teen son, or what have you learned from him that's been surprisingly profound?
What I admire most about Maximus, is his insatiable curiosity, his depth of observation, and commitment to expressing and being his unique self.
Shared Passions: What's an activity or hobby you love doing together with your teen son that brings out the 'cool' in both of you, Neon Goat style?
We love taking intuitive walks together, and being led to walk wherever we feel called. This allows for beautiful connection with ourselves, one another, and the world around us.

Time-Travel Tips: If you could step into a time machine and visit your teenage self, what cheeky piece of advice would you give yourself about navigating the future, especially knowing what you do now about business and life?
i would say… chillax! Slow down, be present and immerse yourself in the joy of the journey.
Navigating the Teen Terrain: Teens are known for their mood swings and monosyllabic responses. What's your secret to getting your teen son to open up and engage in meaningful conversations, especially about life and your business?
Making sure we share golden nuggets of time together, led by his motivations and interests. This doesn’t have to be big chunks of time, but consistent ones, so that there is an open channel and opportunity to naturally share meaningful conversation.
The 'Goat' Legacy: If your teen son were to take over Neon Goat for a day, what innovative or outrageous product do you think he would create, and why?
He would probably create a Neon Goat gaming app, to add some playful vibes to the brand.
