But, my version of a Self StartHER used to be different...
I spent nearly a decade climbing the corporate ladder as a sales professional. I was crushing quotas, winning awards and making a name for myself. While I worked for someone else, I was commission based and I always operated my "business" as if it was my own - my livelihood depended on it. But, I knew deep down that I wanted something that was truly my own.
I always had dreams for more, but never knew how to start. This paralysis held me back for years from creating something that would eventually change my life. Instead, I continued to give everything I had to my corporate employer and helped build someone else's dream.
I missed out on important life moments, I worked while on vacation and I spent hours every day on the road. But, it wasn't enough from keeping me "safe". After announcing my pregnancy to the company, I was laid off.
and I struggled saying goodbye to my
comfy 6-figure income
For nearly a decade, I navigated a successful career in sales within the corporate world. It was a path that seemed secure, with promises of promotions, titles, and accolades. However, life had other plans. Two unexpected layoffs shook my belief in the so-called "safety" of the corporate ladder.
In those moments of uncertainty, something shifted within me. I realized that climbing the corporate ladder was no longer my definition of success. What truly mattered to me was making a meaningful impact and being present for my growing family. The desire to create something of my own, something that aligned with my values and passions, grew stronger with each passing day.
Amidst the chaos of my second layoff, I found clarity. It was during this time, while pregnant with my son, that I decided to dive headfirst into my passion project - the Self StartHER podcast. This endeavor not only ignited my entrepreneurial spirit but also opened my eyes to the incredible community of women like you, who were dreaming of a similar path.
