I send a weekly guide on Sundays and a podcast episode on Mondays about thriving in career and motherhood. Enter your email below to get these updates.
Hi, I’m Sharon. I’m a wife and mother of 2 teens. I’m a leadership trainer and talent manager for a global company in my 9-5 job.
But what I'm most passionate about is helping working moms grow a side business without burnout and exhaustion.
You know why you want to have your own business.
For me, it's because I want to:
- Never be told I've reached my salary ceiling.
- Do work that makes a real difference in women's lives.
- Use my talents and gifts in a meaningful and productive way.
I started my solopreneur journey in 2018 because I never wanted the fate and well-being of my family to rest in the hands of a few people or just be a line item in operating expense.
Having been behind the scenes as a HR leader, I knew this was a precarious situation to be in.
But it wasn't an easy thing to raise young kids, hold down a full-time job, and grow a business on the side.
Luckily, I discovered some useful techniques along the way.
And I found out the most important thing was to work on my mindset, handle my emotions, and use simple methods, systems and routines to make steady progress.
Today, I make a living doing work I love as a leadership trainer by day, and coach working moms about creating the time and energy they need to grow their side business with clarity, calm and confidence.
