Going forward I want to extend my reach as far as I can because there are mumpreneurs all over the world, all facing similar challenges. I’m very realistic in my approach to small business. I’m not one of these people who will tell you that you can easily earn 6 figures while still picking your kids up from school. For me and many in my community, it’s not just about the money, it’s about building a business that works for us, and gives us the flexibility to do something we love, but also be there for the kids. I believe that there are huge benefits to social platforms like Facebook, because they are able to connect like-minded people from all over the world in a way that we have never been able to before. I think at the moment only a small percentage of people are utilising these online connections. Being able to chat to someone in Australia or America as if they were 10 miles down the road is absolutely incredible!” Erin has invited me to get involved too, which I am excited about. She is hosting my webinar next week directly aimed at helping her Mumpreneurs to overcome self-defeating behaviour in business. It just goes to show what great connections we can build if we open our hearts and reach for the stars together. W: www.makingmumpreneurs.com
