Episode 35: The Goddess Show Podcast, Hosted by Tula Tzoras Featuring NANCY YEN

In this Episode, Nancy shares some really practical, valuable advice for our aspiring female entrepreneurs! Nancy is the visionary behind Omie, the San Francisco-based company that created OmieBox, the first insulated bento box designed to store hot and cold food together. What started as one mom’s solution to her picky eater’s lunch struggles grew into a category-defining product now used by families nationwide.A former product manager with a Stanford MBA, Nancy launched Omie after recognizing a gap in the market and refusing to accept that “that’s just how it is” was a good enough answer. She bootstrapped, prototyped, tested, failed, re-engineered, and ultimately built a product that changed how families pack lunch. Nancy brings a powerful, nuanced perspective on: Leading with conviction before you have proof, building a physical product from scratch with no roadmap. Motherhood as an innovation advantage, turning lived experience into scalable opportunity. Navigating manufacturing as a woman founder, sourcing, production challenges, and resilience. Bootstrapping vs. raising capital, strategic growth decisions behind a sustainable brand. Leading a mission-driven consumer brand for over a decadeNancy’s story resonates deeply with women who are building businesses while building families and who want to lead boldly without sacrificing authenticity.
