Less than two years ago, 22-year-old Layla Renner began her candle-making business, Calm and Scents, out of her dorm room. She planned to use her new side hustle as a way to pay for her future law school tuition.

She would quickly realize that she loved making and selling candles much more than the field she was studying to eventually be in.

“I did a couple of law internships and to be truthful, I didn’t really enjoy them,” said Renner. “I wasn’t as happy as I was running my business.”
