Episode Summary
If Lee Selman’s not running the numbers or strategizing for Paleo Treats, she’s creating beautiful art for her other company ManRabbit. She is a successful businesswoman as one personality and, a sought after artist as another. To top it off, when she’s not making tasty paleo treats or creating a new piece of art, she practices Filipino street fighting with stick, sword, and knife — So you don’t want to mess with her!
Lee is the co-founder and co-owner of Paleo Treats, the best healthy dessert you have ever tasted. She is an adventurous spirit, and a professional camel handler by trade, and spent many years running an expedition company in West Africa in the Sahara.
During our conversation, we discuss how to be a creative and entrepreneur without sacrificing one for the other. Lee is breaking the rules of traditional business and using her creative genius to grow her businesses through humor and fun while giving back to her community. We touch on how Lee manages the day to day operations at Paleo Treats with her husband Nik and the ways the two of them build on each other’s strengths to form a powerful team.
