Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Charlotte Jones, Founder of My Little Home School, located in Knysna, WC, South Africa.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

I am a coach for working homeschool moms.

Tell us about yourself

I've been working and homeschooling since 2017, and it's my passion to help other women on the same journey. It's a difficult path to take, so being able to support and encourage women who work and homeschool at the same time is such a motivation for me.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

I started a podcast called the Strike a Balance Podcast for Working Homeschool Moms. It's been wonderful to reach working homeschool moms from all over the world and to offer another form of support.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

It can be really lonely at times to be a business owner. This is especially true if you work online.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

  1. Just go for it! It's easy to overthink and want everything to be right before you start. There will never be a perfect time so just do it!
  2. Be willing to commit. No matter what business gurus tell you, running and growing a business takes time. So you need to be ready to play the long game!
  3. Find a community! My online business besties have helped me so much with advice and support. And it helps so much to feel like you're not alone!
