18. Care box delivery service

Image
Getting sick is horrible, it is even more horrible when you are home alone or away from home. We need to forever change this and create a care box delivery service that delivers a care package right to your home that offers a selection of real food healthy soups with many soup selections such as a simple chicken noodle, a turmeric based one and garlic based soup for wellness and other side items such as rice pudding, jello, cookies, breads and freshly squeezed juices and tea selections. The service can include puzzles, games, adult/children coloring books for when you are restless and bored at home. It can include option to add over the counter medicine to your order saving the sick person a trip to the pharmacy. Once you change how people do sick - hire nurses that can check up on the sick person and suggest a coarse of action. No one should be home alone without the necessities they need for a speedy recovery.

17. Girls Can Lead subscription based monthly booklets for young girls

Image
Despite many achievements accomplished by women over the years, statistics tell us that they make up only 14% of top executives and 8% of top earners today.  While its good that women have entered the workforce in droves and make up 52% of entry level positions, we have long way to go to level the playing field and make up for years of discrimination and hundreds of years of people telling women they can't.  Empowering girls to be more brings a perspective to the most powerful and influential positions that matter, decisions that shape the world.  In order to get there we need to show girls they belong.  Girl Can Lead monthly subscription mission is to inspire the future generation of girl leaders and make them feel they belong.  Their voice matters.  Highlighting stories of women leaders, entrepreneurs and change makers on a consistent basis - young girls will have other women to look up to making the way to leveling the playing field by inspiring girls to dream big

16. Digital behavior calendar that hangs over door and dispenses stickers

Image
Walk into any classroom from nursery to 2nd grade and you will find a dedicated teacher who hand made a behavior chart that rewards goods behavior. What works in the classroom will certainly work at home to help stressed out parents manage child's behavior and reinforce good behavior. Parents need an easy to use digitized calendar that will start the day with a yellow check mark and by end of day child can be in red - you know what red means, or move up to a green check mark - hooray. Upon earning a green check mark for good behavior, the child will receive a super cool sticky dispensed from the device or small games. Parents can refill sticker dispenser with cool sticker or small games choices based on child's likes. Super cool!

15. App that connects classroom parents

Image
I recently had the opportunity to chaperone my son's 5th grade field trip. It was awesome and I am so glad I went! I met other parents and had opportunity to talk about the school system, teachers and struggles as a parent whether working or at home. We set up meet-ups for our children to hang on the weekend and talked about shared experiences with teachers. It was a shame that it was the end of the year that I had this opportunity to get to know the parents' of the children my son interacts with every day for the entire year.  We need an app that connects classroom parents. A way for them to start chats, plan play dates and get to know each other. Maybe even share parenting struggles, community events or meet up for coffee. It would be a great outlet for parents who other way have no other opportunity to make such community connections!

14. Real food support group

Image
Our county faces a health epidemic. We are suffering from preventable diseases and suffer from weight management issues. If 80% of your food is not real food you are taking years away from your life. Food impacts quality and longevity and yet food is not a priority, instead convenience and temptation win over our demons making many of us addicted to highly processed, junk food.   Making major transformations alone is impossible and many fail at eating healthy real sustainable foods. Developing a business around offering a support group that focuses on real food support. will tremendously change this countries quality of life.  Each week meet with your group, set goals and measure success against amount of real food vs processed food consumed in a week. Talk about challenges faced with eating real food with a coach and make a real life long transformation. 

13. A sign hung in car window with label "New Driver - Be Kind"

Image
It's scary being a new driver on the road and even more scary for parents who with a blink of an eye have their once baby in diapers on the road. I am not there yet but the thought gives me shivers today. Thousands of people earn their license every single day many of them teenagers with anxious parents not so ready to send off their kids onto the world.  A new driver sign in a side window alerts nearby drivers and maybe they will take heart and take it easy on the new driver as they navigate their way on the road. 

12. Find and hire home based cook or food prep help at home

Image
Some states are wisening up and legalizing home cooks. We need an app that makes it easy to find a local home cook that can whip up your favorite dishes or baked goods for you and deliver to your door. You want to get healthy but no time for food prep. How about use the same app to find food prep masters who can come to your home chop up and prep and freeze meals for you at your home for an entire month at a time.  Now that's an app worth biting into.

11. Smoothie blenders in corporate office buildings for employees to use

Image
We spend most of our time at work and for most of us you are a dot sitting in a cubicle somewhere. Wouldn't it be awesome if there were vitamix machines available in your kitchen area.  You grab some fruit, veggies or whatever from home and make smoothies on breaks, instead of grabbing bagels or donuts from the kitchen you make your own real food, wholesome smoothies right at work.  Awesome isn't it? 

10. Food snacks with date food was made on box

Image
Wouldn't it be refreshing if food was sold with real transparency.  Our food products are gimmicky, they are fake and have useless marketing information created to lure but not educate.  A food company that published "made on" date is honest and refreshing.  It protests everything horrible about the current state of our food industry. 

9. Science themed birthday party place for kids

Image
Planning a birthday party for your child can be stressful. How will you keep a group of children entertained for 2-3 hours with everything else you have going on. And for that reason the birthday party entertainment  business is a huge industry.  We have your jumpy gyms, paint your own pottery places, build a bears. movie theatre themed party but one type of party place is missing - a crazy, fun science lab where kids get to make slime, volcanoes erupt and turn coins into jewelry. Science is unexpectedly fun and would fill the void for a group of curious young minds coming to celebrate your child's big day! 

8. Forum that settles arguments

Image
Marital spats are inevitable.  We need an app that settles our arguments for us once and for all. Who should put the seat down? Is cover pulling acceptable? Define mother-law boundaries. Neat freak vs messy monster. Over spenders vs way too cheap.

7. Online donut bouquets shipped to your door

Image
Donut you know the donut is mighty. They rule the world.  Trends come and go but the donut never dies.  Tell someone you love them, miss them, with someone a happy birthday with a fun donut bouquet.

6. Mattress spray cleaner

Image
I recently discovered how to get slimy, yellow stains off a mattress by doing some research online. It was like magic. I went from wanting to throw away my mattress to having a fresh, clean and oh so bright mattress.  A clever mattress spray cleaner spray bottle with the just perfect formula all the way!

5. Device that tracks and shares medical information

Image
Data is currency and yet its difficult for medical researchers to get their hands on it.  Companies have ways to learn all they can about their potential consumers  and track our information to target consumers like vultures - its disgusting. We need a device that collects data for the sake of the greater good - medical research  and inevitably makes medical research less expensive.  It would have the power to collects data about anything that can measure our health and send it to medical research for those who are willing to select the send my info to medical research checkbox.
