THE MANIFESTO
A love-letter to those who became entrepreneurs
because the rent is due on Friday.
According to the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM), nearly 66% of entrepreneurs start businesses out of necessity — not privilege, venture capital, or connections.
Everyday Unicorns is a love letter to the founders building from kitchen tables, Hondas, hair chairs, side hustles, and corner stores. While Silicon Valley celebrates billion-dollar unicorns, this book honors the everyday people creating opportunity out of grit, resilience, and determination.
Necessity is not a deficit. It is a competitive advantage
Necessity
The most underestimated MBA on earth.
Ownership
From Survival to Stability
Dignity
More Than Income — Identity, Pride, and Possibility

IN CONVERSATION
“Kim Anthony is giving a voice to the entrepreneurs too often overlooked — the people building businesses from courage, necessity, and determination. She reminds the world that innovation doesn’t only come from Silicon Valley. Sometimes it comes from the kitchen table and the dream that refused to die."
