The drive: What challenges have you overcome?
The challenges I’ve overcome have been numerous and profound, each shaping me into the resilient and determined individual I am today. From childhood abuse and emotional trauma to battling with feelings of inadequacy and post-natal depression, I’ve faced adversity head-on, refusing to let it define me.
Struggling with a lack of self-worth and isolation, I embarked on a journey of self-discovery and healing, determined to rise above my circumstances. Building a thriving marriage over 25 years amidst these challenges has been a testament to our commitment, communication, and unwavering love for each other.
In the realm of technology, navigating the complexities of computer technology and learning to create an online business has been a monumental feat. Despite the steep learning curve, I’ve embraced the challenge with determination and perseverance, continually pushing myself outside of my comfort zone.
Perhaps one of the greatest challenges has been balancing the role of primary caregiver for my children while pursuing my professional endeavors. Yet, through patience, adaptability, and unwavering dedication, I’ve managed to find harmony between these responsibilities, prioritizing both the well-being of my family and the growth of my business.
Each obstacle I’ve faced has only fueled my determination to succeed and serve as a testament to the strength of the human spirit. With every challenge overcome, I’ve emerged stronger, more resilient, and more deeply committed to living a life filled with purpose and fulfillment.
For better or worse: What are the pros and cons of running your own business?
Running my own business has been both a rewarding and challenging journey, reflecting the ebb and flow of life itself. On the positive side, having my own business allows me the freedom to pursue my passion for holistic healing and emotional well-being while being present for my family as the primary caregiver. It provides me with a platform to make a meaningful difference in the lives of women, empowering them to reclaim their sense of self and thrive amidst the demands of motherhood.
One of the greatest benefits of running my own business is the flexibility it offers. I have the autonomy to set my own schedule, allowing me to prioritise my family’s needs while still devoting ample time to growing and nurturing Thriving Mama Hypnotherapy. Additionally, seeing the positive impact of my work on clients’ lives brings immense fulfillment and purpose to my journey both personally and professionally.
However, with the freedom and autonomy of entrepreneurship also come challenges. Balancing the demands of running a business with the responsibilities of motherhood requires careful planning, time management, and sometimes sacrificing personal time. Moreover, navigating the complexities of technology and learning to establish and grow an online presence has been a steep learning curve, requiring patience, perseverance, and continuous adaptation.
Despite the challenges, the journey of entrepreneurship has been a deeply enriching and transformative experience. It has allowed me to cultivate resilience, creativity, and a profound sense of purpose as I continue to navigate the ever-evolving landscape of business ownership. Ultimately, the pros far outweigh the cons, as I remain steadfast in my commitment to empowering women and making a positive impact in the world through Thriving Mama Hypnotherapy.
