On Liftoff Journeys, we go deeper than the headlines—you’ll hear the real, behind-the-scenes stories that leaders rarely share. In this episode, Jeanniey Walden sits down with Amy Livingstone and Julie Wilson, the co-founders of Cheeky Chompers, who transformed a simple frustration,dropped and lost baby teethers, into a globally recognized brand.
From a chance meeting at an antenatal class to creating the award-winning Neckerchew, Amy and Julie reveal how they balanced motherhood and entrepreneurship to design products that make parents’ lives easier. Today, Cheeky Chompers has sold more than 3 million products, partnered with retailers like John Lewis and The White Company, and expanded into 35 countries, including the U.S. and China.
You’ll hear about their early days testing ideas with focus groups, the nerve-wracking experience of pitching on Dragons’ Den, the resilience required to grow through challenges, and even the special honor of recognition from King Charles.
