Seriously, it's My Business is a series where the Manawatū Standard profiles young Palmerston North people who've struck out on their own and started their own business before they turned 30. There always seems to be a reason for delay when you're thinking of starting a business, but for one young Palmerston North couple, their age wasn't going to stop them. Felicia Aull, 22, started Soul Family with her 24-year-old partner Daniel Anderson, before she left university, building up the business as she finished a masters degree in environmental management. DAVID UNWIN/STUFF Soul Family sells a range of reusable products, from hemp shopping bags to straws, to help eliminate environmentally damaging single-use plastics. Anderson's grandmother was a shop owner and Aull grew up around the family business, Highway Truck and Car Services.
