Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Marilyn Gomez, Founder of Marilyn Gomez Wellness, located in Modesto, CA, USA.
What's your business, and who are your customers?
I am a Modern Western Astrologer using traditional Hellenistic timing techniques in my practice combined with my finance and business management background. I specialize in helping entrepreneurs and my students recognize their worth, validate their gifts, and align passion + profit in their lives and careers using their astrology blueprint.
Tell us about yourself
For the last 12 years, as I’ve journeyed through my dark night of the soul, I’ve studied alternative healing modalities, fallen head over heels in love with Astrology, and decided to go all in! I didn’t start as an Astrologer. My background is in Business and Finance. I spent decades building businesses for others until I realized I wanted to be home caring for my children and my health in ways I neglected for too long while building something of my own. And astrology has been such an integral part of my transformation. I can’t help but pay it forward.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
One of my most significant accomplishments is having the patience and taking the time to understand my business from the ground up. It’s giving me a unique perspective to help in so many ways as entrepreneurs build the foundations necessary for sustainability.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
One of the most challenging parts of entrepreneurship is knowing where to focus your time and energy, setting healthy boundaries for balance, and personal time management.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Line it up with your astrology chart! I may be biased, but this ancient tool has helped me clarify every step of the process.
- Set a solid financial foundation because it can be over before you start without knowing what you’re working with and planning accordingly.
- Remain flexible. Especially in the beginning years, while finding your footing, this will allow your vision to be greater than you ever anticipated.
