A quest for independence

Being financially independent has always been important to me.

Growing up in a single-parent household taught me just how important it is for women to create their own support system—both financially and socially.

That’s one of the reasons that, while working in Geneva, Switzerland, for Europe’s largest bank (at that time at least!), I created a Women’s Network—where women could connect, share and support each other.

Through that network that I realized I wasn’t alone in my search for independence and balance. Every woman I spoke to wanted to work, but also craved more flexibility.

Their experiences gave me the courage to start out on my own when I had my first daughter 10 years ago, instead of returning to my 15-year career in marketing and communications.

It was a difficult decision as 1) I loved my job and I’d only recently been given an important promotion that saw me report to the CEO, my dream boss, and 2) I had no idea if I could do it!

But the thought of returning to full-time employment and only seeing my daughter for fleeting moments each day worried me more, so I knew I had to at least try.

Taking the leap

I set myself up as a freelance corporate writer and internal communications consultant. I worked while my daughter took her naps. It was perfect.

As my reputation grew, I worked on many exciting projects for some of the world’s largest organisations, as well as many of its newest solopreneurs.

It was all coming together so well…apart from one thing, I'd lost sight of my vision to have balance in my life, and I'd failed to create a business model that allowed for that.

I spent all my time caring for my family and clients, working late nights and weekends to keep up. I became overwhelmed and exhausted. I developed adrenal fatigue and was on the road to burnout.

It took a while to recognise the situation, but when I did I took steps to change my business model to give me more balance, put me back in control and give me more opportunity for personal growth.

Success is a team effort

My new business model gave me access to world-class business and leadership training, coaches and mentors. It also allowed me, from my home in Switzerland, to mentor and coach women around the world on how to achieve business success on their own terms. 

I became surrounded by inspiring and driven business owners, which added fuel to my growth and broadened my vision of what's possible. I loved it!

As my business and success grew, women started approaching me for help to build and grow their own business.

I believe my purpose in life is to help women gain the independence and confidence they need to lead fulfilling lives – all my personal and professional experiences to date have been pointing me in this direction – and running your own successful business is an ideal way to achieve this; if done right.

So, I decided to evolve my business to meet this demand and help more women - based here in Switzerland, and around the world - to achieve balance and success; enabling them to be in business for themselves, but not by themselves.
