My journey as a business mentor is more than a profession—it's deeply personal. Inheriting from my father an innate ability to cheer on endeavours, I've embraced the role with a commitment to guide entrepreneurs toward prosperity. Beyond financial success, my mission is to foster genuine human connections and champion the art of mentorship. Welcome to a uniquely personal mentorship experience where your success is fuelled by heritage and my unwavering belief in your untapped potential.
Embarking on my entrepreneurial journey at 17, I've built businesses rooted in values that define my mentorship approach. F is for Dance, a revolutionary dance events company, stands out as a beacon of empowerment and innovation. Despite lacking a dance background, I self-funded and independently grew this unique venture, impacting thousands across Australia.
In 2022, after a decade of strategic scaling, I successfully sold F is for Dance, marking a significant milestone. Empowerment and innovation remain at the core of my mentorship approach, derived from these experiences. Join me on a personalised journey where these values guide your path to business triumphs and unparalleled success.
A significant milestone on my entreprenure journey was the establishment of Begin to Arrive, an aromatherapy brand venturing into the world of eCommerce. This endeavour showcased my determination and resilience, introducing an Australian-first waterless and portable nebulizing essential oil diffuser.
Amidst personal challenges, including significant life transitions and a period of profound grief, building Begin to Arrive became a steadfast focus. Within the first year of operation, I scaled the business from a $30,000 investment into an impressive $300,000 in revenue.
After scaling Begin to Arrive at an unprecedented pace, I found myself facing the harsh reality of success without adequate support systems.
My entrepreneurial philosophy is born from my own personal journey, rising above burnout and embracing the value of mental health. This transformative experience led to decisive actions like setting firm business boundaries and prioritising self-care.
I now understand that sustained success demands a holistic approach. It's more than conquering obstacles; it's about navigating the journey with purpose and well-being at the forefront. This realisation highlighted the significance of having the right support in business, like a mentor who has walked the walk.
Having benefited firsthand from mentorship, I am dedicated to providing that crucial support to others. As I guide entrepreneurs through the dynamic world of business, my approach is grounded in resilience, balance, and a sincere commitment to preserving inner peace — a philosophy shaped by the belief that the right mentor is essential for a successful and well-balanced entrepreneurial journey.
