Yin and Yang: How do you balance work and family?
I’m currently studying for a Doctorate, plus working full time, so balance is a real issue! For me, animals and nature are a really important way to find my joy and we are very fortunate to have a lifestyle block with a bunch of gorgeous animals. Our teenage daughters are busy having adventures and discoveries with study and travel, so they are home from time to time at the moment.
The drive: What challenges have you overcome?
I’m not sure I can say overcome – but I’m overcoming technological barriers and challenges!
Learning to do something in an online space was certainly not easy!! I’m learning a lot every day with that – there’s so much to learn and some of those hurdles had me ready to give up early on, I have to confess.
But the project and the aims of what I was wanting to achieve and offer people kept me going.
For better or worse: What are the pros and cons of running your own business?
It’s really great being able to create and construct something that is exactly as I want it to be. It allows for all kinds of flexibilities. The cons are the unknowns and the curve balls.
Hopes and dreams: What next?
I’m really looking forward to working with a whole lot of new, wonderful parents and helping them be the best parents they can be, to grow gorgeous, creative, curious children with an open mind to trying new challenges.
