Q: What gets you out of bed in the morning?
A: "What gets me out of bed in the morning is the ability to help other women achieve their dreams in business. Also, this newfound path I get to forge for myself with my business."
Q: How and when did you start your business?
A: "I was in this place where I was working 12+ hour days and was surrounded by negativity from superiors in my corporate job, to the point where it was taking a toll on my mental health and family life. I had the entrepreneur itch for years and knew that I could truly connect and help other women achieve their marketing goals. I ultimately knew that I wanted to forge my own path to success. So in July of 2020, during a global pandemic, I decided to leave my comfortable corporate job to pursue my dreams of becoming an entrepreneur and controlling my marketing career as a woman-owned business in Rochester."
Q: What our your core offerings?
A: "I helped heart-centered organizations by lending a hand with social media, project management, content creation, and public relations."
Q: Who are your customers?
A: "My customers are non-profits, small businesses, and corporations looking for someone who can dive in as a team member to improve and maximize marketing efforts."
Q: What has surprised you?
A: "On this road of entrepreneurship, I did not realize the personal journey I would need to take. It has taken every fear and piece of me that I needed to work on and magnified it. It really forced me to do the inner work that I had been neglecting. I have enjoyed the rough moments as much as the success. Getting a counselor was one of the best things I did in the first few months of owning my business. I would suggest it to anyone."
Q: Anything else you'd like to share?
A: "If it were not for Natalie's help as a business coach, I would have probably never taken this leap of faith into entrepreneurship. She has this welcoming nature that genuinely makes you feel comfortable when you are in her presence."
