I Became My Mother's Business Partner | Isabella Lin | TEDxZizhu Park

Описание: Isabella Lin and her mother have transitioned from a familial bond to becoming partners in career, navigating understanding and clashes along the way. The disagreements and adjustments during the early stages of entrepreneurship allowed her to rediscover her mother's resilience and wisdom. Through the process, she learned to respect amidst differences and grow through collaboration. She says, "True intimacy lies not in dependence but in standing side by side." Today, they are each other’s most trusted partners and the family members who understand one another best. With a smile, she adds, "Growing up, it turns out, isn't about leaving home—it’s about moving forward together with family." Isabella, a 14-year-old young entrepreneur, displayed exceptional business acumen as early as second grade. As the founder of Explorlife Family Club, she led her team to win the 2025 Forbes China Most Investable Company Award. In addition to her entrepreneurial success, Isabella is a versatile cellist, composer, and young author, with her diverse talents complementing her business achievements. Currently studying at a prestigious Swiss institution, she is working to merge Western perspectives with Eastern wisdom.

Isabella’s unique entrepreneurial journey began when she assisted her mother in managing her younger brother. Through this experience, she discovered the immense value of intergenerational communication. She turned the seemingly insurmountable “generation gap” into a powerful collaborative bond, offering new inspiration to the entrepreneurial world.
