Lotte Davis always knew she’d be successful. But what she didn’t expect was that she’d find the greatest reward for her financial success in helping other people.

Lotte and her husband, John founded professional hair care company, AG Hair in the basement of their Vancouver home in 1989 and built it into a multi-million dollar business servicing thousands of salons around the world.

Having achieved financial independence, Lotte decided to channel the “entrepreneurial juices just seeping from my pores” to start-up a venture in the philanthropic sector. She founded One Girl Can, an education charity that would change the lives of thousands of Kenyan young women and become the most defining work of Lotte’s life as well.

This episode is a candid conversation about Lotte’s roller coaster journey of building two successful ventures in completely different fields. You’ll hear how she and John navigated the effects of the pandemic, which nearly devastated their business but ultimately became the springboard for a new period of growth -- as well her unique perspective on wealth, spending, and how she taught her daughters to have a healthy relationship with money.
