⨠From Australia to Madrid⌠and soon, Lisbon.
Six years ago, I started my online business because I needed something to change.
As a single mum, I wanted more flexibility. I wanted to be there for my son, to take him to medical appointments and support him, while building something for our future.
I wasnât imagining myself travelling to Europe, organising international events or standing on stage as an MC.
I was trying to work out what was possible for me, with the responsibilities I already had.
And Iâm sharing this for the woman who knows that feeling. â¤ď¸
The woman who works, cares for others, keeps everything moving⌠and quietly wonders, âWill there ever be time for something thatâs mine?â
I know how easily your own dreams end up at the bottom of the list. Especially when the people you love need you.
Building my business took time, learning and a willingness to keep going when things didnât go to plan. Along the way, it also brought people into my life who became dear friends.
Yesterday, I arrived in Madrid and hugged friends and business partners I hadnât seen in a year. We sat around a table, shared food and w**e, talked business, talked life and laughed together.
In a few days, Iâll be in Lisbon, helping bring Gather & Grow to life and stepping onto the stage as MC.
This trip, paid for by my business, means so much to me. My son is now well and grown up, and I get to explore what this next chapter can hold.
Iâm grateful I gave myself permission to begin before I knew where it could lead.
If youâve spent years putting everyone else first, itâs okay to want something for yourself too. You can love the life and people you have, and still want to grow. â¤ď¸
Whatâs something youâd love to make room for in your next chapter?
