Done With Limiting Business Advice?
"Some people are just better suited for second in command; you should give the business over to your husband."Â This is the answer I got on two separate occasions from two male, business owner friends of mine when I asked them for business advice in the early days of running my company.
My business coach told me when I was pregnant with my first child that once my baby was born I wouldn’t want to run my business anymore. I would just want to lay down and stare at my baby all day. Spoiler alert! That did not happen. Two babies later and I’m still running my business.
It Shouldn't Be This Way
Women own nearly half of the businesses in the US and this number is growing
BUT
88% of women-owned business make less than $100,000/year
Less that 2% of women-owned businesses make 7 figures compared to 12% of businesses overall
THE WAY THE WORLD IS TEACHING WOMEN TO RUN BUSINESSES IS NOT WORKING
You're Not a Failure
Only learning to run your business from men can lead to burnout and discouragement because it doesn’t take into consideration the extra work you have on your plate, the massive roadblocks society puts in front of women to keep them from succeeding and the mindsets you were handed that are keeping you stuck.
And this leaves you feeling like you’re a failure, like there’s something wrong with you because you’ve poured yourself into your business and it’s still not giving you the return you so desperately need.
It’s not your fault that you’re stuck in this situation and I'm here to help you find your audacity and make the money you deserve.
It's OK to invest in you
A lot of women really struggle to invest in themselves through something like business consulting, but without someone to com alongside your business growth is slow, you stay exhausted and some women just quit entirely because their life and family are suffering.
It can be better for you AND the people you love!
I've been there too.
A note from your coach
My name is Jecelyn I've been running a business since I was 20, and I understand what it feels like to start going after your dreams only to be hit with roadblock after roadblock. I understand how it feels to have massive dreams and no clear picture of how to accomplish them. I’ve built a successful business while breastfeeding babies and with no formal business education despite BS advice from the people who were supposed to help me. Now it’s my life mission to make sure that no woman entrepreneur is ever stuck with bad information and no support. I help women like you who perhaps feel like there's no hope of reaching their dreams in business and avoiding burnout
