The LLC was created in November 2022 without a written business plan. I had zero experience owning a business because I’ve worked in corporate my entire career. For years, I had a burning desire to execute a plan around a vision, a mission, and a passion to help people and organizations grow and thrive including myself. But I was afraid.
- Afraid of failure
- Afraid of being on camera
- Afraid of judgment
- Afraid of being poor, again
The list of fears continues. Thank you, Chelsea Frisbee, for this enlightening conversation back in 2021.
I worked hard in high school and college to never become an entrepreneur. But if I am to set an example for my sons to not let fear dictate their life decisions, mom needs to at least give it a real try. And if I should “fail” and end back up wanting my bi-weekly W2 paycheck as an employee in a corporation with all the fringe benefits, I would have learned so much about starting a business, how to manage a business, and self-reflect about my own strengths and weaknesses.
I share this entreprenuerial journey to help other people especially moms like me bloom where we are planted. I have experienced the isolation and loneliness of working motherhood and I expected solo entrepreneurship to be just as hard as parenting.
My vision is to build a network of people and businesses interested in personal and business growth with kind leadership in mind. When our mission, goals, and core values align, together, we can go far.
Now, I’m off to watch this video since my trial subscription to Quickbooks Online ends at the end of January.
