In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Christine Churchwell, Co-founder of SlimeZilla.
Christine shares how a childhood fascination with slime turned into an unexpected family business built alongside her son and daughter. Growing up in Philadelphia, Christine developed a strong desire to create opportunities and lasting stability for her family. Drawing on her experience as an educator and childcare center director, she encouraged her children to turn their interests into something meaningful, leading to the creation of SlimeZilla. What began as conversations about a slime-themed amusement park eventually evolved into a mobile slime experience that brings creativity, fun, and hands-on learning directly to families and events.
Christine discusses the realities of building a business through measured risks, finding her first customers, refining her offerings, and learning how to price her services based on the value she provides. She reflects on balancing family responsibilities while growing a company, continuously improving the customer experience, and staying committed to delivering memorable events. Along the way, Christine reveals how her background as an educator shapes every interaction and why listening to customer feedback has been instrumental in SlimeZilla’s growth.
Hear how Christine Churchwell combined education, creativity, and family collaboration to build a business unlike any other in this episode of The First Customer!
