Get to know Amy Denholtz Lewandowski, owner of Jazzercise Hillsborough

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business, and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: I became the new owner of Jazzercise Hillsborough in March 2023, but Jazzercise has been creating friendships through dance fitness in Hillsborough since the 1980s. I was previously an instructor at Jazzercise Hillsborough and love the community of inspiring and strong women.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved, what motivates you every day?

A: I love being a Jazzercise instructor and the greatest gift is seeing how much our Jazzercise Hillsborough community supports one another - cheering each other on and lending a shoulder or hand during any challenge. As a business owner, I'm so proud to set an example for my daughter - she sees the hard work I put in, the joy I have sharing the Jazzercise dance fitness program, and the importance of women of all ages and stages staying active for their physical and mental health.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: I've received and shared lots of advice, but the most meaningful support I've received, and tried to reciprocate, is connecting with and learning from other small business owners, especially women business owners. We can all help each other thrive.

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: We started this business in February 2019 and set up in Hillsborough in June 2020, this is a family business of mine and I am a 3rd Generation in this line. I got married and moved to the USA and now that my kids have grown up, I realized it was time to do something that I enjoy. The biggest reason for choosing Hillsborough is the proximity to my family. I absolutely love this town because the people are so warm and welcoming.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved…what motivates you every day?

A: We are in the business of appreciating hard work, celebrating memorable events and making memories last forever. This is what kept us going in spite of all the challenges we face. We feel honored to be a part of such memories.

Get to know Barbara Kelly, Owner of All About Balance, LLC.

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: I started my business in 2016, but first opened in March of 2017. For many years I had my own business as a physical therapist, but had learned about a boxing fitness program for people living with Parkinson's and saw how I could help even more people with this unique approach called Rock Steady Boxing. I have lived in and around Hillsborough since 1982, so I knew it was a good location for this program, since the population and area has grown so much, which meant I could really help the people in this and nearby communities to have access to these specialized classes.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved…what motivates you every day?

A: The people with Parkinson's who come in to our classes and fight every day to slow the progression of their symptoms and the disease are my motivation. My team of volunteers and coaches are inspiring as well, as we all work together to support each other in the victories and the hard times too.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: I have a few pieces of advice. First, listen to your heart. Second, ask for help and get out there and talk to as many people as you can about your dream and mission. And lastly, surround yourself with supportive, like-minded people.

Get to know Janet Kuebler, owner of Committed Care Solutions, LLC dba Right at Home.

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: We purchased an existing Right at Home franchise in June of 2007 after providing care for family members. Organizing that care made us realize how difficult, challenging and overwhelming the process can be. We provide care in Somerset and Hunterdon Counties so we needed a town located between the two counties, with easy access to the train station and easy for caregivers to find. Hillsborough provided that location. After renting through most of 2018, we purchased an office in the Omni Drive complex. Hillsborough is our office home!

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved…what motivates you every day?

A: Our clients, they need our care and support each day. We make a difference in our clients' lives each and every day.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: Work toward your goal of opening a business everyday. Don't compromise your integrity to make a sale. For anyone looking to start a business, use the free resources available from the Small Business Association. Mentors are available to help you get your business started. You can make appointments with consultants who can help you with your daily business operations. Find a mentor in your business category who will help you to avoid mistakes others have made.

Q:When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business, and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: Our business was started in October 1965 by my dad, David Byerley, once he graduated from Franklin High School in Somerset. My grandfather, Richard 'Slim' Byerley, had also owned and operated a trash collection business named Slim's Somerset Disposal Service, Inc. which he started in approximately 1945 when he returned from military service. I literally inherited my father's business in August 2013 along with my mother and sister after he passed away unexpectedly. I took a leave of absence from my corporate job expecting this to be a short term venture but has now turned into 8 years and worked out well for my personal flexibility as well.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved… What motivates you every day?

A: I have always been a motivated person having chosen to complete both my bachelors and master’s degrees part-time over the course of 14 years while moving up the corporate ladder in a full-time career. At this point, I think I continue to be motivated by the interest of helping others whether it be ensuring my employees have jobs or that customers receive the proper level of service at a reasonable cost. I am also motivated in setting an example for my son in that you have to earn what you have, and it is not simply handed to you.

Q:What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: Given several life changes over the years, my best advice is 'you can't take it with you.' So work hard but play hard enjoying what is earned versus all work which can increase health issues and lead to unhappiness. For a woman starting a business, I would advise you can do anything you set your mind to. I am running a business that is truly in a man's world. Thankfully, I have the personality to deal with some of the 'backbone' needed to resolve day-to-day challenges. Women should think carefully about the business they are getting into and understand they need a firm stance to push through gender stereotypes as many thought a bunch of women inheriting a trash collection business weren't going to make it too far but have been proven VERY wrong.

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business, and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: Ascend Hot Fitness open in November 2019. After years of participating in and teaching regular fitness classes, I decided to open a hot studio in Hillsborough. After taking my first Hot Pilates, I fell in love with the health benefits of the infrared heat and exercise. I chose Hillsborough because I worked as a teacher in the school district and love the supportive, down-to-earth community vibe. In the near future, I plan to bring more mental wellness (meditation, sound healing) and aerial fitness to balance out the studio's offerings.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved… What motivates you every day?

A: I am motivated every day by the participants and community that enter the studio doors. They work hard to achieve their goals, and over time, it is amazing to see their results. I am grateful to have some part in their fitness and wellness journeys.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: My best advice for woman looking to start her own business is to search out services within the community. Community connection is important to keeping a business thriving, even through a pandemic or difficult times.

Get to know Jayne Mochnacz of Super Sundaes, one of our 2020 Spotlights

Q: Tell us a little about your business model/service and your target client.

A: To provide Ice Cream treats and cakes. We wanted it to be a place for families to come and celebrate life!

Q: What is your business background prior to owning this business?

A: My first jobs were in the restaurant industry. I received a BSBA from Northeastern University.

Following graduation, I worked in the training department in a contract food service company,

where I met my husband, Steve. When we started our family, I jumped out of that industry and into family childcare. Running my own accredited family childcare business was so rewarding!

So, with all these experiences, I knew that in my next job, I wanted to continue to be my own boss.

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business, and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: 22 plus years!!!! We are residents of this town! We surveyed the town looking for what was needed and what was different. Using our business model, our shop was needed! As far as Ice

Cream/dessert shops, we have been around the longest! Our plan was to be the owner/operator of a business, so we needed to agree. We both had a strong food service background. I started my Ice Cream “career” at 16 at a Friendly ice cream shop. When the opportunity to take a leap of faith and open a family business, what better way of bringing families together than with ice cream!

Q: What has your experience been from owning this business in Hillsborough, and has it been what you expected?

A: OMG it is so much more! It is empowering to know we have such great customers! But without the customers, we would not succeed. Just as they give to our business, we needed to give back too. We realized that our business can be an avenue to help our community thrive.

Through the years, we have supported many Hillsborough based non-profits, schools, scouts,

churches and sports groups. It has been so rewarding and fulfilling.

Q: What do you find to be the most challenging aspect of owning your business?

A: Issues related to perfectionism, procrastination and time management are intertwined daily.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved, what motivates you every day?

A: That is a difficult question to answer without writing a novel. Knowing what I wanted in a job, I have been able to create a livelihood that maximizes the best in me. I guess the saying, "Hard work puts you where good luck can find you" is my motivation.

Q: As a woman business owner, what are you most proud of?

A: I am amazed at how long Super Sundaes has been in business. I could not have done it alone, I am fortunate that I have a strong family, great employees, and wonderful customers.

Being my own boss has brought out the best in me.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent" and "Hard work puts you where good luck can find you." Although you could own/run a business alone, remember you can't be successful without customers and the community.

Q: What do you envision for your Hillsborough business going forward?

A: To continue on! Finally, we have a Walk-Up Window! May maneuvering through this time be nothing more than a speed bump. We can’t wait to get back on the Highway!

Q: Any final comments or thoughts you would like to share?

A: Live life as an exclamation point and not a question mark!

Get to know Jessica Rogers, owner of Peaceful Home Organizing, LLC

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business, and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: I launched Peaceful Home Organizing, LLC in April 2023, after becoming a Certified Organizational Specialist in 2022. I had been on an organizing journey in my own home for several years, and I realized that the training and know-how I had gained to get control over my own home could help other women and their families. I began volunteering at my church, then helping friends and family, and trained under a well-known HGTV organizer. I chose this area to work in because we've lived in Hillsborough for years- even before we had kids- and raised our children here now for 10 years and counting. I love this community and the surrounding areas.

Q: What do you find to be the most challenging aspect of owning your business?

A: Issues related to perfectionism, procrastination and time management are intertwined daily.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved, what motivates you every day?

A: I know the immense feeling of relief and happiness that is waiting for my clients at the end of our sessions, and that is really what motivates me. For women and families who are feeling overwhelmed or burdened or just stressed by a trouble spot in their homes, decluttering and organizing even just one space can be so cathartic and literally life-changing. As one client said at the end of our session together, "I feel a thousand pounds lighter!" Being able to be part of that process is so life-giving.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: The best business advice I have been given is not to be afraid to take action, even if everything is not as perfect as you would want it to be, and to know your season and what your priorities are going to be during that season. Whenever we take something on, we have to know what we are going to release in order to make time for our new venture or project. And if we wait until everything is perfect, we may never launch our business. Bring as much value as you can every day, love and serve your customers, and trust that your love and your heart will shine through in what you do.

Get to know Lauren Warmke, Owner of Simply Sweets

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business, and why did you choose Hillsborough?
A: Simply Sweets went legit in 2015, yep that long ago, when I outgrew being a home-baker. I jumped around a bit, was tempted to quit, made mistakes, learned many lessons which all led to opening where I currently am today. The Cake Studio opened at Triangle Center in 2019 and has been steadily growing ever since. Hillsborough was the ONLY choice, it's my hometown, a town that desperately needed some sweetness!

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved, what motivates you every day?
A: Saturday is the single day that motivates me each week. It's it so fulfilling to see & meet each customer. These customers give me life, they make waking up at 3 AM on Saturdays a piece of cake! So corny I know, I love hearing the stories, seeing the smiles, they are all becoming a huge part of my life. I'm very thankful for the community I have been able to bring together in four short hours each week.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?
A: It's the same advice I would give to anyone looking to start a business. If you're scared, do it anyway. That fear never goes away, you just get braver!

Get to know Kim osterhoudt, Owner of Jams by Kim.

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: My business opened in Sept 2009, and at the time I was living in Belle Mead, but I needed a PO Box address since I use a commercial kitchen to produce my jams, so Hillsborough had everything I needed. I have used my Hillsborough address throughout the life of my business. I love making Jams, and I made my first jam at age 12. I always enjoyed procuring fresh local produce and making Jams and Jellies. When I was laid off in 2009, my friends and family encouraged me to sell the jams I had been making and giving as gifts for years. Much to my surprise, after setting up the business and securing the appropriate health department approvals, my customers really enjoyed my Jams too. It’s an amazing feeling when customers come closer for more and share their stories about how much they enjoy my products. Being in business full time for eleven years doing something you love is a great feeling.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved…what motivates you every day?

A: My customers, they just keep coming back. I sell online at my website and at the Duke Farms Farm to Table market on Sundays. I am also selling at the Montclair farmers market on Saturdays, and my Jams are available at Just Jersey in Morristown, Dogwood Farms in Basking Ridge, and at the Cook and the Carpenter Bake Shop in Highland Park. I am so grateful for my customers who just love my jams and keep encouraging me to make more Jams. I use some of the recipes that my mother and grandmother used and I have some of my own creative jam recipes. The key motivation for me is that I get to do something that I love to do. I love making Jams.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: Find something that you love to do and make that your passion. Also, network with other women business owners, I belong to the Central Jersey Chapter of NAWBO, the National Association of Women Business Owners. My NAWBO sisters always have my back and they encourage me consistently.

Get to know Mrinalini Ayachit, Owner of Vibrnz, LLC

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business, and why did you choose Hillsborough?
A: My business was created in May, 2018. With my passion for creativity, corporate experience, and educational background, I wanted to build something new and innovative that could make a difference for the community. Having organized multiple events in the past and worked with small businesses and non-profits, I realized there was a need for an integrated platform like Vibrnz. After developing the software for a couple of years, we launched our first event in January 2020. We are residents of Hillsborough, and we love being here. We started Vibrnz here and we would like to see it grow as it brings in multiple benefits to the local community with its success and innovation.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved, what motivates you every day?
A: My passion and my dream of making a difference with my own creation motivates me every single day. I have multiple years of work experience and a good educational background, and I can get a well-paying job anytime. But the fact that Vibrnz has helped entrepreneurs and small businesses and the thought that it can make an impact on millions across the globe inspires me every single day.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?
A: It is never easy to follow your dreams. And not everyone has the luxury to follow their passion and do what they really want to do. But unless we try, we wouldn’t know. What is important is your confidence and the persistence to make things work. My only advice would be to have the grit and confidence to keep going. Many of us, specially women lack the confidence and look for validation from others. We are defensive while selling our product and always feel we could do better. If we are true to ourselves and we believe in our product, and business, nothing should stop us! I would say if you have a financial safety net, go for your dreams. Nothing compares to experiencing the success and wellbeing of your own baby!

Get to know Robin Blair, Owner of Dog Days Daycare Center.

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: Dog Days Daycare Center opened in July 2005 as a loving and controlled environment where companion dogs can socialize with other dogs and our staff, play together, and enjoy both mental and physical stimulation, much like child daycare. Hillsborough is the perfect location for my business. Not only do I live here, but I know many Hillsborough families and individuals who may only have limited time to fully exercise and interact with their dog due to long work hours, family obligations, packed schedules, etc. Dog Days is able to fill that gap. Just as importantly, for people who need to board their dogs overnight for a single night or extended period, there have been few options to traditional kennels with individual runs, or family members/friends who agree to care for the dog during the owners' absence. At Dog Days we provide a home-like environment where the dogs are free to roam both inside and outside. They are permitted to sleep wherever they are most comfortable whether it's on the couch in the playroom, on one of many cots and beds, or even next to the overnight attendant. The dogs are never left alone and enjoy the company of both staff and other dogs.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved…what motivates you every day?

A: After 20 years in the corporate world, nothing gives me more joy and satisfaction than seeing the happy faces and wagging tails of pups pulling to get inside the facility to start their adventure. We have fantastic customers who become part of the Dog Days family. Sharing their pups and entrusting us with their care is the ultimate compliment!

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: A woman looking to start her own business will face the same challenges as a man, plus more. Ginger Rogers once said that she performed all the same dance steps as Fred Astaire, but she did it backwards and in high heels. Women know this from life in general and simply must persevere in business as well. If you can't get it done one way, find another. Just plan on being successful!

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: The best advice I have been given is to never be afraid to try. The initial step in opening your own business can seem very daunting but the feeling you get when your business grows and comes to life is immeasurable. It is important to have a team (accountant, lawyer, marketing advisor etc.) in place that will help guide you in your decisions.

Get to know Tina Rear of Scrap U & Artistry Too, one of our 2020 spotlights

Q: When did your current business open, what led you to open this particular business and why did you choose Hillsborough?

A: Scrap U opened in 2015 and I started teaching from my home. Hillsborough was a natural choice for our studio because it's been my home for almost 25 years.

Q: What do you find to be the most challenging aspect of owning your business?

A: I think one of the most challenging aspects of my business is keeping a consistent customer base. I think finding "regulars" that are interested in art that want to keep coming back is difficult. Most make those commitments to gyms, dance, sports, but not art. The other challenge is time. It is difficult to be open all the time, like a storefront, without consistent customers. This business is run so differently than a store and people often comment that they stop by, and we are closed, assuming that we are open all the time, which I would love to be, if I had the client base to warrant it.

Q: Given the challenges of owning a small business, and the hard work involved, what motivates you every day?

A: I love to see the creativity that comes alive in our students. When families come in together, create art together and when parents see the amazing work their children are capable of, that is the most inspiring part of my job. Knowing that these families are part of our Scrap U Family means the world to me.

Q: What is the best advice you have been given? What advice would you give to a woman looking to start her own business?

A: I think we are always evolving and learning something new but the one thing I can share is how important social media and referrals are for a small business. I am always looking to partner with other local businesses, so I would say to anyone looking to start a business, create partnerships where ever you can!
