Q: What’s the most important business lesson you’ve learned?

Most important lesson I have learned is to set boundaries and establish clear deadlines. Whether it be personal or business, I have learned that setting and communicating boundaries up front gives clear direction and eliminates unnecessary (often avoidable) confusion. It is important to do so when juggling responsibilities, so all parties know what is expected of each other and when to deliver. Who does what by when. Never leave a meeting without having these things established.



Q: Business secret you’re comfortable sharing with the world?

Be honest and communicate clearly. Say no to opportunities that go against your values and beliefs or make you feel unsure of yourself. Say yes to challenges and new experiences.

Q: Entrepreneurs and business owners have the tendency to be workaholics. How do you overcome burn out?

I find it impossible to slow down. I have learned the best way to overcome burnout and gain some time is to schedule it. I create a calendar event or pay for something so I know it is an obligation and I can’t back out! I also enjoy booking spontaneous trips and going to different events. During these times, I am completely immersed in the experience and am unreachable via phone. When I have these breaks from thinking, I feel like my mind is cleared, and often new ideas flow. At those moments, I have a notebook handy to jot down those ideas, so I don’t forget them. I’ve also learned the importance of prioritizing my own personal obligations. When my personal life is in order and is taken care of, I feel like I’m able to focus clearly on the business.

Q: What's been a game changer for you and your business?

Hiring employees and outsourcing things in exchange for more time! I don’t know how my father was able to run the business as a sole proprietor for almost 30 years with very little help from others. I have learned you don’t have to do everything alone and that it’s okay to solicit help. Of course, it impacts your margins. However, your time is always more valuable. If you can outsource or hire someone to do the job for less than your personal hourly rate, then DO IT!

Q: How did the idea for your business come about?

I am in the process of re-branding an existing business. Updated business model, name, the whole 9-yards. I want to carry on the legacy and scale what has been given to me to create jobs and give back to my family.

Q: What was your key driving force to become an entrepreneur?

I believe I have always been an entrepreneur at heart. Although my father was a business owner and it inspired me in so many ways, the thought of non-guaranteed income was never something I was comfortable with. Thus, I elected for guaranteed salary working in retail management. Recently, my leap of faith into entrepreneurship wholeheartedly came up with the passing of my father and the opportunity to take over the established family business. I left my salaried job with sufficient skills to feel confident in taking over the business in place of my father. My key driving force has always been the light from within and it is who I have always been.

Q: How has being an entrepreneur affected your family life?

I feel more present, and my priorities are in order because I’m intentional about it and have the bandwidth to do so. Taking this path has helped me grow closer to my family and my community. I am in full control of my schedule. My people can reach me, especially in times of need, and I can be there for them. It’s refreshing not to be under the jurisdiction of someone else’s authority. I don’t have to justify what I do or when I do it. Of course, if you don’t work, you don’t generate income for the business, so there needs to be a reasonable balance. Although my people are my priority, I’ve learned the importance of setting boundaries. Just because you’re flexible doesn’t mean you’re always available and that is okay!

Q: Do you believe there is some sort of pattern or formula to becoming a successful entrepreneur?

If you are not striving to be the best, it’s not the right fit for you. You shouldn’t be asking if you want to give everything, your actions will naturally fall in place. If you find it difficult to want to give your all, move on to something where you will. Otherwise, you will not reach the level of success you’re dreaming of and someone will do it better than you.


QWhat would you say are the top three skills needed to be a successful entrepreneur? You must be motivated, open to new ideas, and disciplined. If all else fails, it’s on you!
