I made a lot of mistakes, some were really expensive. However; I was grateful for the lessons it taught me and owning a business opened me up to so many wonderful things. I made some of my best friends from my business journey – bonding over our mutual experiences in running a biz and sometimes motherhood. Pivoting from product to service based business.

I am going to help demystify the world of business networking as well as offer tips and advice for getting the most out of your networking opportunities. Which means yes, interacting with other people – usually face-to-face.

More often than not, business owners are high-performing people. Entrepreneurial life definitely lends itself to a certain kind of personality.

My children are growing up at a frightening speed, I’ve had a sore hip for no apparent reason and everywhere I look on social media, women seem to be ageing in reverse? It’s a lot. So, I decided to hit pause on the anti-ageing hamster wheel, take a deep breath and appreciate the lighter side of this beautifully chaotic process called getting older – instead of feeling like it’s something I’m fighting....

I remember the days in the beginning of our journey, marked with loneliness. In fact, we got our dog Pepa because Kane was doing large 5 week swings and I felt so lonely at home when he was away (side note: getting our dog was the best decision ever).

Business is the tangible aspects. Things like the name of your company and the products or services you offer. Brand is more intangible.

Before you launch anything or begin building your brand, there are some foundations you need to establish....
