What's your business, and who are your customers?
I am a psychologist that writes self-empowerment programs and books for women to achieve goals and become happy.
Tell us about yourself
I achieved life goals despite obstacles - I had a disability, raised by a single poverty-stricken mother who at times was homeless - to owning my own property in my 20s, graduating pre-med from UCSD, and later putting myself through graduate school to become a psychologist and write books about my experience to help others through similar experiences.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Writing my latest book, "The Muse Process," and having a publisher buy the rights to publish it.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Doing things totally on my own.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Make sure you have a mentor prior to setting up.
- Get advice from helpful sources.
- Trust your gut.
