Meet Sheena Jongeneel: LA Mama and Stylette Founder

“Listen to your own heart and what works best for your family.”

WHAT DO YOU DO AND WHAT LED YOU TO THIS CAREER?

I'm a single mama of a little girl. I quickly learned the pain points of wasting money on kids clothes that they quickly outgrow. I started Stylette, a children's clothing store where parents can rent kids clothing instead of having to buy them. We offer special occasion outfits for boys and girls and will be launching everyday styles soon. We dress the kids and do the laundry, too!

WHAT ARE THE NAMES AND AGES OF YOUR CHILDREN?

Rumi is 6 years old.

WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR BIGGEST CAREER ACHIEVEMENT THUS FAR?

Getting my MBA as a single mom.

WHAT IS THE MOST REWARDING ASPECT OF BEING A MOTHER?

The unconditional love and support from my little girl.

AND WHAT IS THE MOST CHALLENGING?

Trying to build a company as a single mom.

WHAT IS YOUR BEST ADVICE FOR SOMEONE NEW TO YOUR INDUSTRY?

Never give up.

WHAT IS YOUR BEST ADVICE FOR A NEW MOTHER?

Listen to your own heart and what works best for your family.

WHAT'S NEXT FOR YOU? DO YOU HAVE ANY EXCITING PROJECTS COMING UP?
