Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in personal development but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Carol Pilkington, Founder of Relate to Succeed, located in Reseda, CA, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
As a Transformational/Spiritual Counselor and Ordained Non-Denominational Minister, I work with high-performing/high-achieving 26 to 43-ish business owners and executives that are experiencing anxiety, depression, and a general state of sorrow. They throw themselves into work and feel isolated and alone. They have high self-expectations and demand a great deal of those around them, which ultimately leads to disillusionment and disappointment.
Tell us about yourself
Based on my own transformational journey, it is more of a calling to show people a path to joy, purpose, and a deeper meaning of life that goes beyond the survival mechanisms and external gratifications that are limited in their capacity to sustain true joy that is our birthright.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Seeing clients experience relief, peace, joy, and fulfillment that they feared weren't possible before working with me.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
One of the hardest things about being a business owner, especially a solopreneur, is finding the right people to do all the marketing, administrative and technical aspects of running a business.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Be clear about your vision and why it matters to you.
- Take time to know who you want to serve.
- Be discerning about who you ask for help from.
