If it’s family, you give 100% of your attention to family. If it’s work, you give 100% to work, and you don’t let anything interrupt you. This was a huge turning point for me and I wish I would’ve learned it about 10 years earlier.
This blog is a transcript of my interview with Natalie Naaman for her YouTube series called “Through an Entrepreneurial Eye” in 2020 when I had recently started my business.

Support = ‘bear all or part of the weight of; hold up.’ We like to think we can do it all on this journey of entrepreneurship (we are superwomen after all, right 🦸♀️) but it takes a village to raise a business and a village to raise a baby.

Some of you may know me really well and some of you barely at all. Either way I am excited to have you here and on this journey with me. I decided months ago I’d share a blog about the face behind the business and give you a snippet into my life on my original business blog. Yet every time I sat down to write it, I’d get in a muddle of how to start, where to begin and what you might like to know.
