You're not too old to start your dream business


Hello Reader,

You need to hear this:

You're not too old to start your dream business.

I've been dreaming of being my own boss since my 20s.

Between then and turning 50 this year, I've also

  • Raised 2 kids who are now teenagers
  • Checked off travel bucket list destinations
  • Built a successful corporate career as a HR leader, trainer and coach

Now, for my second act, I'm ramping up my dreams of being my own boss.

This had always taken the backseat as other more important priorities in life took centerstage.

But I refuse to give up on this dream.

Over the years, I never stopped learning and picking up skills (including money-making side gigs!) while doing what I needed to do to provide for our family,

If you have a dream in your heart to build a business, no matter how late or old you think you are, take this as inspiration to start.

Even if you don't end up making the millions of dollars you set out to, the journey will change you for the better as a person.

This is what it means when you hear this famous quote we love to tell our kids:

"Shoot for the Moon. Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars." ~ Norman Vincent Peale

And if nothing else, it would be a cool story to tell at the end of it all.

Reader, Time - a loaded word for ambitious working moms. There never seems to be enough of it. It goes so fast you can't believe your kids are all grown. Or it goes too slowly. Always when you're trying to put your baby to sleep for the 4th time in the last hour so you can get a few minutes to yourself. Ultimately, it comes down to how you're relating to time. We all have the same 24 hours. Yet, some people seem to accomplish so much - and some, so little. I share more about this topic on...

Reader, Today is the last Sunday in 2024. So tempting to do it like everyone else - Review your 2024 List improvements you'll make Define where you're going in 2025 Let's do it differently, shall we? It's great to reflect and set direction for career and lives, of course. But I've found things like 'goal setting' just let me down - I often don't hit my goals. Then I just end up feeling disillusioned, disappointed, and no good. So instead of doing the conventional year-in-review and goal...

Reader, You know how they say if you want success, you have to show up like a pro. They say the difference between pros and amateurs is that pros show up no matter what. Amateurs show up only when they feel like it or when they can. I'm a pro mom and wife then. Because I show up for my family no matter what. Sick or well Rain or shine Feel like it or not Exhausted or energized I was supposed to show up like a pro in my business today by publishing a podcast at 9am. It's what I committed to...
