"Dad, I'm quitting. I can no longer run PR for you. I'm starting my own company."

I remember it like it was yesterday. It was a Monday morning, and the moment my daughter walked into my office and closed the door behind her, I knew something was up. Now, there are certain people you anticipate quitting unexpectedly, but it's never your children. But I wasn't upset. In fact, it was the exact opposite-- I was thrilled.

I was sad to lose her as a teammate and no longer work with her every day, but when she quit to start a kid's clothing company, I was happy she was following her dreams, not mine.
