It all began with $15 and three sisters, ages 6, 7, and 8, knocking on doors to sell chocolates. What started as a childhood business grew into a lifelong mission to make entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and fearless thinking accessible to young people.
Today, the Carvajalino Sisters are internationally recognized entrepreneurs, bestselling authors, and global speakers who have inspired and impacted millions across more than 20 countries. Honored by both the Colombian government and the White House, featured in leading global media outlets, and founders of Biz Fest, they continue to inspire a new generation through education, innovation, and action.
