What's your business, and who are your customers?
I am your "Mindset Mentor" I help propel individuals who struggle with self-doubt, low esteem, confidence issues, and fear into the success of their "NOW" with mindset, transformation, and empowerment.
Tell us about yourself
I can recall very early on that I was always a very optimistic, faith-filled little girl who would share what I had and encourage anyone I was around. I am the oldest of 10 children, and I had many responsibilities in the care and upbringing of my siblings. I was trained from the very beginning to be a leader. As a young teenager, I cared for my special needs brother, who has Downs Syndrome and is a nonverbal autistic person. There wasn't much known about autism at that time. I was very influenced by his determination to communicate and also by working with his school to teach him to sign language. That experience alone gave me a great understanding of the power of the mind and believing what is possible against all odds. I never felt that there wasn't something that I couldn't accomplish or get done once I believed that it was possible. I share this same mindset with those who doubt themselves through strategies and techniques to transform their thinking and help propel them into the success that they desire.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I am so proud to have been honored by my peers and encouraged by my 1st conference attendees to provide an annual experience for them. The joy of walking in your purpose and impacting lives is beyond measure!
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
As a business owner/entrepreneur, you are challenged with many things. I find that my biggest challenge is knowing when to stop. Taking time to rest and perform self-care is essential for any business owner's success because burnout is very real. You cannot show up as your best self when you are exhausted. It is important to delegate and not assume all of the responsibility.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Write out your vision. Have clarity on what you want to do, and write out everything you desire.
- Surround yourself with the people in your industry who are successful at what they do. You need to be in a room or place that can show you your inspiration and potential.
- Do not discount having a mentor. Having someone in your corner to help you figure out your next steps and guide you in your process is priceless.
