How do you get a valid letter of recommendation if you worked in your family business after graduation?

The MBA program I am trying to apply to requires 2 professional letters of recommendation but also says that they do not accept letters from "friends or family". If you worked in your family business after graduation and your boss is literally your parent, how do you get a professional letter of recommendation?
