Tell us about yourself
After 17 years in the corporate world, my role was eliminated in the midst of the pandemic. With a lifelong calling to create something special, I decided to jump into entrepreneurship.
I am driven by the conviction that I have an empowering message and experiences to share. I believe that when we create something from the depths of our soul, it is the unique service only we can offer.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Getting started. The rest comes.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
Learning to ask for help and knowing when to say no.
What are the top 3 tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
1) We choose not by what we think, but by what we do. If you have a dream, or an idea, stop thinking and start working on it.
2) Be a learner.
3) Seek and value mentors.
Is there anything else you'd like to share?
Know your "why", and stay true to that while allowing it to evolve as you do.
