Not many people can say they’ve gone from high-level CIA officer to founder and CEO of a beloved sleepwear brand, but in 2015, Emily Hikade did just that. She left a successful career of more than a decade as a CIA officer to prioritize time with her family, and decided to give pajamas a try… Today, she’s CEO of the luxury pajama company, Petite Plume, which has not only been profitable since its first year, the company has also doubled its revenue every year since launch, and brought in over $10 million in revenue in 2022. Hikade tells us how she grew her brand, what it was like to make such a major career pivot, and how to find success no matter where life takes you.
