From LEGO lover to lighting up a $12m empire: Kenny Lee

🎙️ Welcome to "Chew the Fat," where real business insights meet real-world success stories.

Welcome to today’s episode, where we’re thrilled to chat with an inspiring entrepreneur who turned his passion of Lego into a global success story - Kenny Lee, the founder of Light My Bricks.

Back in 2016, Kenny started his business with just $10k and a “why not” attitude. He was in his mid-30s, working a stable job, raising three kids, but instead of letting that stop him, he broadened his thinking and found a way to make his passion for LEGO something more.

Today, Light My Bricks is a world leader in LEGO lighting kits, with products sold across the US, Canada, Europe, Asia, and Australia. Kenny’s company has grown to a team of 30 LEGO enthusiasts and turned over an incredible $12 million last year.

In this episode, Kenny shares how he transformed his mindset which is what struck a chord with me most. He shifted from linear thinking to creative problem-solving, and speaks on how that change was key to his success. He’ll talk about how he identified his passion, unlocked his beliefs, and built a thriving business around what he loves. Whether you’re a LEGO fan or not, Kenny’s journey is proof that it’s never too late to turn your passion into profit.

Get ready for a fun, insightful, and motivating conversation with Kenny Lee.
