International Women’s Day
Having left my job in London in 2015 to return to my family farm and set up a natural skincare business, I felt there was zero support for female start-ups. Especially, a wellness-based business like mine. That all changed when I discovered Network Ireland, a networking group for women. Today, I am honoured to be the Vice President of our Mayo branch. Our mission is to support and empower women in our community.
Here are my top 3 insights from my own entrepreneurial journey -
Be authentic, don’t be afraid to be yourself.
Trust your intuition, your gut instinct is powerful - use it.
Find out what you are good at and keep doing it!
In Ireland, being a female entrepreneur requires bravery in abundance! Every single woman who goes before us helps pave the way and imparts some of her bravery to those who follow.
