Om Warrior Kids

Maddie Faye is a 16-year-old teen entrepreneur that's on a mission to empower and inspire kids and families around the world. She’s making it happen and turning her dreams into reality! At 14, I became one of the youngest certified yoga and mindfulness meditation teachers for kids and teens in North America. She then created OM Warrior Kids—a fun and safe place to practice yoga, mindfulness, and meditation through animated story videos.

Check out my interview with Maddie here:

Describe your perfect day as a Wildpreneur.

A perfect day for me as a Wildpreneur is feeling fresh and motivated in the morning. A new part of my routine is going outside and waking up my body by running around with my puppy, Eddie (@itseddiethedoodle on Instagram) and getting my circulation flowing and my mind going. I love getting positive feedback I receive from my social media community, connecting with others, and seeing new members join every day. It’s also a great feeling checking items off your list, feeling accomplished at the end of the day.

Tell us about your wild business(s) and lifestyle! What was your inspiration to create OM Warrior Kids?

OM Warrior Kids is a video adventure series for kids, ages 3 to 12 years old, where they learn yoga poses, mindful breathing exercises, and ways to meditate, all through fun and entertaining animated story videos.

At only 14 years old, I became certified in teaching kids, tweens, and teens yoga, mindfulness, and meditation. This makes me one of the youngest certified yoga instructors in North America. During the first couple years of being certified, I taught classes at local libraries, schools, and events. I was on a mission to empower as many kids as she could, through teaching the benefits of yoga, mindfulness, and meditation, but to reach more kids I knew I had to change the way I taught my classes and go online. That’s when OM Warrior Kids was born! My mission now is to empower the young generations to be a kind and confident OM Warrior; showing up as amazing leaders of our world!

What do you wish you’d known prior to getting started as a Wildpreneur?

Something I wish I would have kept in mind when beginning to build the OM Warrior Kids website and membership is the big picture of what the brand would evolve into and become later in my entrepreneurial journey. Now thinking of new business elements, this has brought me to creating a whole new website and membership platform that is easy to navigate and now available for kids, as well as teens and adults in the near future.

What advice would you give to someone who is considering turning their passion into a business?

My advice to a beginner entrepreneur would be to remember why you started, continue to stay motivated to get to the finish line, and of course, have fun while doing it!

Anything else you’d like to share about your journey?

When Covid-19 struck, I wanted to help families with affordable child entertainment at home, and I worked fast and furious to get the membership program up and running. Finally, in June 2020, everything was ready to launch! I’m now giving all families a special, limited-time offer of lifetime access to all my current and future videos (new videos added every month), for only one payment of $67!

What are you working on right now?

I’m now working on new content for teens and adults to enjoy the benefits of yoga, mindfulness, and meditation through fun, relaxing, and easy sequences, great for any level of yoga practice.

I also plan to create a step-by-step course, with tips and tricks I’ve learned along the way of my entrepreneurial journey. My goal with this course will be to share the knowledge and experiences I’ve had with other teens who have a passion they’d like to make into a business.

Any other inspiring Wildpreneurs that you recommend connecting with?

I began my entrepreneurial journey because of the one of the most inspiring people I’ve ever met. Adam Toren, co-author of the Kidpreneurs Book and Academy, sparked the fire for my entrepreneurial journey to begin. By guiding me through and helping me along the way, I couldn’t ask for a better mentor.
