All Change!

Well it may well be 2 months since I last posted on my blog but a lot has happened during that time!

Since my last post at the end of June, I took the very scary decision to sell my Athena business (and for those of you who know me will know what a difficult decision this was!) so I could really devote my business time and energy to my new consultancy. I knew it was a giant leap of faith. Not only was I letting go of my baby, I was embarking on a massive change which would push me way out of my comfort zone - all very scary as I say!

Going from a hugely profitable business to setting up from scratch again isn't a decision that's made lightly and I wasn't going to simply set up a conventional 'consultancy' where I would be trading my time for money, I knew the way I wanted to continue to work was to create a business model that allowed me to work school hours and term time only.

So, after 4 months of intensive study and working with world class mentors and I've also taken the WHOLE month of August off to spend time with my daughters, I am almost ready to launch my new business!

I'm not saying any of this has been easy. I've listened to countless audios in the kitchen whilst cooking meals, reading transcripts in between building sandcastles on the beach with my girls and I must say I am a total techie phobic but I have found the last 4 months truly mind blowing. It's been great stretching myself mentally and it's only when you do that you realise you've been in your comfort zone for far too long!

So whilst August has been a blast catching up with friends and family, I feel ready for the new school term and I'm now looking forward to September launching my new business and attracting clients who want to become more cash rich and time rich. There is a way to do both, you just need to create the vision!
