MADEUS ERICKA PERRY Founder and Owner of The Stork Bag @thestorkbag E ntrepreneurship is somewhat as a conundrum, as an entrepreneur who has a proven business model, I am still trying to navigate the ins and outs of what it means to be a successful entrepreneur. I started on my entrepreneurial journey in 2012 with my first company, MommyMaiDD Services Inc. After investing a lot of time and energy into that venture and not getting the results I was looking for, I decided to place my focus elsewhere. Two years later, I found myself creating again in an effort to fill a gap in the ever- growing maternity and gifting marketplaceā€”The Stork Bag was born. The Stork BagĀ® is the first eco- friendly pregnancy subscription that caters to pregnant and postpartum women. Each trimester-specific, reusable care package introduces our expectant customers to useful and safe made-magazine.com | 72
