Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in media & marketing but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Leslie Jespersen, Founder of Marsolluna + Co, located in Atlantic City, NJ, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I work as an intuitive brand alignment strategist supporting women who desire fulfillment and freedom but don't know where to begin or are afraid to take the leap.
Tell us about yourself
I have been a media strategist for 7 years now, but it wasn't until the pandemic that I was forced to reassess how I use my skills. I decided that I wanted to include more spiritual modalities and empower women in a more feminine energy instead of solely providing media and communications services. I am motivated by the breakthroughs that my clients have, and watching them show up with new-found confidence for the first time always lights me up!
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
My biggest accomplishment as a business owner, I'd say, is that I was able to brand myself as a true renaissance woman without having to hold myself to one thing only. I allow flow and trust my intuition to guide me, and it has never steered me wrong.
What's one of the hardest things that comes with being a business owner?
The risk is the hardest part of being a business owner. There's no guaranteed paycheck every week, and you have to consistently work hard and show up for yourself and your team so that you can provide for yourself and your family.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Find a mentor that you resonate with and invest in yourself to learn what you need to.
- Keep focused, and don't worry about how others are doing
don't compare your journey to theirs. - Collaboration and community. Network. Meet one new person every day.
