Eight years ago, I said goodbye to my comfortable, well-paid 9 to 5 and started walking dogs for a living. Was I crazy? Possibly. Was it worth it? Absolutely! In less than 2 years I built my pet sitting and dog walking company to over $100,000 in revenue with 12 employees. In this podcast I share insights with you on being a woman quinquagenarian entrepreneur in the pet industry. I’ll give you a look into the good, the bad and the ugly of entrepreneurship that nobody else will share with you. This is a behind the scenes look from a recovering corporate junkie at being an entrepreneur and the doubts, fears, imposter syndrome, struggles, challenges, breakthroughs, and sheer joy that comes from living your true self. If you’ve ever thought about escaping from your current job or if you’ve already made the entrepreneurial plunge and need a little support from someone who’s been there and tells it like it is, tune in now!
