In this episode, Greg chats with Alex Zimmerman, the founder of Nesting Olive, a brand that specializes in modern house dresses, also humorously referred to as the modern-day muumuu. Greg praises the brand's uniqueness and suitability for Mother's Day gifts. Alex shares her journey of starting Nesting Olive after struggling to find comfortable and beautiful clothing post-pregnancy. With a background in social work and no business experience, she embarked on creating her brand with a modest budget, focusing on designs that cater to pregnant and nursing women. This venture led her to learn and balance entrepreneurship with motherhood.
The discussion transitions into the strategies behind Nesting Olive's expansion, particularly focusing on selling through third-party websites like Nordstrom.com.

The conversation concludes with advice for other entrepreneurs looking to enter retail or niche marketplaces, emphasizing the necessity of a high-quality product, determination, and the ability to navigate and comply with strict retailer policies.
