This week, someone asked me how I grew my business.
Honestly? It has taken more out of me than most people see.
Before I welcome the first woman into my studio, there are hours of programming, emails, admin, learning, planning and figuring things out.
And behind those hours, there have been doubts, difficult decisions and days when I’ve wondered how I’m going to manage everything.
I love what I do. Deeply. But loving it doesn’t make every part easy.
Building HERLAB has required strength and resilience that I’m still learning to recognise in myself.
If you’re building something too, I hope you give yourself credit for the work nobody sees. For the things you’ve learned from scratch. For trying again when something didn’t work.
I’m proud of the business I’m growing. And I’m proud of the woman doing the growing, too. ♡
