Today you’re going to hear the story of Cake Server and Jade Ryan.

Jade blew me away. Jade went to university to study structural engineering, became a structural engineer, started and built a side hustle while working full-time, is a mother of two young children and then, while on maternity leave went through the accelerator program ICON offered by Slingshot in partnership with the University of Newcastle and started a company called Cake Server, which you will hear about today. Oh and one more thing, Jade bought her house at 24.

We’ll get deeper into Jade’s and Cake Server’s story. But for now, let’s go back to day one, where this story begins…
