It seems like these days with the internet and social media its easier than ever for someone to start their own business. Which is exactly what this 17 year old Florida girl did in a field you might not expect from a high schooler.
She has started her own auto-shop out of her parents’ garage! She went and hired five other girls to help with everything and named it “Riley’s Rebuilds”. They take carburetors which people mail in, rebuild them, fix them up and then ship them back to the owner. They have even figured out business hours after school gets out so it doesn’t infringe on their education. Then they undercut the price so they are much cheaper than most real shops. Smart!
These girls are definitely future business owners.

Now that we’re a week into October you’ve the pumpkin spice mania is in full swing. You’ve probably had a few PSL’s by now. While delicious, they are also dangerous when it comes to the calories count. So how much do you have to work out after having one to burn it all off?
Let’s start with the smallest size at Starbucks, a tall. The “healthiest” version with nonfat milk and no whipped cream is going to require a 1.6 mile jog to burn off all those cals.
Now, if you want to go all out and go full pumpkin crazy with the biggest version? A Venti with whole milk and whipped cream…. get ready for a 4.6-mile jog to get rid of all that. Or you could also do 54 minutes of burpees. Ouch.
Is the PSL really worth it? You can be the judge.

This is an incredibly inspiring story. A blind skateboarder from Michigan named Daniel Mancina recently broke a world record for longest “50-50 grind” on a skateboard. He slide 20 feet, 5 inches on his board down the rail.
Now you might be wondering how does he safely skateboard when he cannot see? Good question, he actually uses a cane before he sets out to conquer whatever area he’s skating on. That way he can plan out where the obstacles are and figure out which way he’s going to go. Take from someone who skateboarded all through high school it’s already hard enough when you CAN SEE, I can’t even imagine doing it blind. So major congrats to Daniel for figuring this out.
And now he’s even helping other blind skaters by building adaptive skate parks for visually impaired kids who want to take up skateboarding. He’s going ot host workshops, lessons, and hope to get skateboarding into the 2028 Paralympics.
Amazing
