Born, raised, and still based in Washington State, Diana Kralovic worked as an accounting admin for 15 years. She founded her company to help with a bout of postpartum depression. "My family gifted me a soapmaking class," she says," and after lots of experiments, tests, and trial and error, I began selling!" She started in a garage and now has a dedicated studio. "My kids make me want to work harder all the time, to show them that moms and women in general can be badass businesspeople."
