Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Iara Line, Founder of Life Change Breakthroughs, located in Sedona, AZ, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
Life Change Breakthroughs was created to motivate and help individuals to awaken to their highest potential and to help create the life they really love. We understand that there are many factors that may be preventing an individual from creating and maintaining a life they really love. From family traumas, relationship issues, low self-esteem, and lack of direction or understanding of their gifts and abilities. For that, Life Change Breakthroughs offers a series of transformational therapies and guidance, such as Family Constellation and Ancestral Healing Sessions and Workshops, Transformational Life Coaching Sessions, with NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), Manifestation Workshops, Reiki, Conscious Access Bars, and Sound Healing.
I also offer Transformational Talks around the world, motivating the public to take action and teaching how ancestral healing can play a big role in creating the life you really want and love. My business serves every individual that wants to change or improve their life, but I noticed that 90% of my clients are women.
Tell us about yourself
I came from a legal background as a Business and Tax Attorney at Law in Brazil and later as an Enrolled Agent in the USA (certified tax advisor) and business advisor. However, I have been involved in the conscious growth movement since 2009. I started by taking many courses and certifications from some of the best coaches in the world and deeply working on myself. I became a Reiki practitioner, a Conscious Access Bars Practitioner, a Sound Healer, a Life Coach, an NLP (Neurolinguistic Programing) practitioner, and a Family Constellation Facilitator.
Little by little, after much work on myself, the urge to help others in a deeper way (not just with legal and business stuff) grew. I started to do holistic and coaching work with family members, friends, and even my employees at that time. In 2020 I had a strong call that it was time to share all my knowledge with the world, and it was when I created Life Change Breakthroughs. I absolutely love waking up every day knowing that I will make a difference in someone's life, helping them to have breakthroughs, sharing what no longer serves them, and paving a new road to create the life they love.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
I believe it is that I had started and succeeded in three different businesses in the USA, being an Immigrant from Brazil, and knowing very little English when I first moved to the United States in 2014. I just learned and started doing it right away. No time was put to waste.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
In my opinion, one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner, especially in the beginning, is to try to do everything by yourself, from developing your website to marketing, content creation, selling, teaching, etc. It is so much easier when you have help.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Start doing some local networking the right way. Do not rely just on social media. Groups like BNI, Chamber of Commerce, SBA's, and even Rotary Clubs and Toastmasters are great for that.
- Having a business plan is great, but even better is to take things off the paper and start doing them right away. Don't wait until you are ready. You will never be 100% ready.
- Find some professionals to take care of your business admin stuff, such as bookkeeping and tax preparation, so that you can focus on your business.
