My Journey: From Humble Beginnings to Helping Moms Thrive in Business
Hey fabulous Moms!
I’m Grace,
I’ve been on this entrepreneurial journey for over two decades. But before I became the person who helps moms like you build businesses that work for your life, I started out just like you—navigating the ups and downs of balancing family, work, and the dream of something more.
Let me take you back to the beginning.
It’s funny when I think about where my journey started. Back in 1999, I wasn’t thinking about becoming a business expert or helping others find their path. I was just trying to figure it all out myself. I had big dreams but no real road map. I didn’t come from a family of entrepreneurs or have a mentor who could show me the ropes. But I had determination—and a belief that I could make something happen if I just kept pushing forward.
So, I took the leap. I started my first "real" side business whilst studying in university. It wasn’t glamorous, and it didn’t make me rich overnight. But what it did give me was something even more valuable—experience. I learned firsthand what it’s like to take risks, fail, get back up, and try again. Those early years taught me the importance of persistence, grit, and never giving up, even when things didn’t go according to plan.
As life unfolded, I became a mom. And like so many of you, I found myself trying to balance being present for my kids while also growing my business. I’d love to tell you it was easy, but it wasn’t. There were days when I wondered if I could really do it—run a business and be a great mom at the same time. The pressure of trying to be “perfect” in both worlds felt overwhelming.
But here’s the truth: perfection is a myth. It’s not about doing it all flawlessly; it’s about figuring out what works best for
YOU
And that’s exactly what I did. I found ways to make my business work around my family, not the other way around. I learned to build systems, streamline processes, and use tools that gave me more time to focus on what mattered most—being there for my kids while still pursuing my passion.
Before fully diving into entrepreneurship, I pursued a completely different path. I spent years studying and training in the field of Nuclear Medicine. It was a rigorous, expensive journey that took a lot of time and effort. My parents were proud of me for choosing such a prestigious career, and I knew how much it meant to them.
But deep down, I felt conflicted.
The truth was, even though I had invested so much in this career, it just wasn’t for me. I wasn’t passionate about it, and I couldn’t see myself doing it for the rest of my life. It was a hard decision to make, especially knowing how disappointed my parents might feel when I chose to walk away.
But I knew I had to follow my heart.
I decided to gradually step away from Nuclear Medicine and take a leap into full time entrepreneurship. It wasn’t an easy choice, but it was the right one for me. Looking back, I’m so glad I trusted my instincts because it led me to where I am today—helping other moms build businesses they love and live lives on their own terms!
There was a moment in my journey where everything started to change.
After years of learning, failing, and trying again, I began to see the fruits of my labor in a big way.
At the time, I started a bridal hair and makeup services whilst studying that turned into a successful agency that took off like wildfire. I advertised only for a short period of time coupled with a "royalty" customer-first based service that my clients absolutely LOVED, and because of that word spread VERY quickly. Before I knew it, I was fully booked almost a year in advance consistently for years! I had to expand and created a team to enable the "royalty" standard of service to all of my clients.
I had brides reaching out to me from all over, wanting to secure my services for their big day. It was surreal. Some were even offering thousands of dollars more just to get me and my team to work on their wedding day. It felt amazing to be in such high demand, but I couldn’t physically take on every opportunity. I had to start turning potential clients down.
That experience taught me a valuable lesson—when you find your niche and deliver excellent service, you become irreplaceable. I was the living proof of that. If you put in the work and focus on providing exceptional value and service, success follows. But it wasn’t just about being good at what I did—it was about building systems that allowed my business to run smoothly even when I couldn’t be there.
And that wasn’t the only time my business took off through sheer word of mouth. After my bridal agency success, I started offering private and small group English as a Second Language (ESL) tutoring classes.
At first, it was just a way to help others, but before long, my classes were filled with students who heard about me through friends or family.
I didn't need to advertise, not even once.
People simply recommended me because of the results I helped them achieve coupled with the excellent personalized service I gave them based on trust and honesty, and that was the ultimate compliment for me as an entrepreneur. My students thought of me not just as a teacher and mentor but also a trustworthy confidant.
These experiences were game-changers for me. They showed me that when you combine passion, excellent quality service, and strategic planning, the business will flourish.
The key to this is working smart, not burning yourself out by taking on too much. I realized that it wasn’t about chasing every opportunity; it was about building a business that's sustainable—something that gave me enough money and time to live my life as I intentionally chose, while still growing purposeful business.
Now, I help moms like you find that same sense of balance and freedom, and live life intentionally.
I know what it’s like to feel overwhelmed, like there aren’t enough hours in the day, and you’re always playing catch-up. I’ve been there.
And that’s why I’m so passionate about showing you how to build a business that fits into your life—one that allows you to be present for your family while still pursuing your dreams.
My goal is simple: I want to help you find more time to spend with your family, more freedom to live your live as you intentionally chose, and more success in business by using smart strategies and AI tools that work. I’m not about the hustle-and-grind mentality. I’m about helping you create a sustainable business that supports your life, not the other way around.
Over the past 20+ years, I’ve built multiple businesses from the ground up.
I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t. I’ve faced challenges, overcome obstacles, and learned some hard lessons along the way.
But more importantly, I’ve used those lessons in my life to help others succeed.
I’ve coached and mentored many women who were in the same shoes I once wore—juggling family responsibilities while trying to build a business. I know the unique challenges moms face, and I’m here to provide real solutions that actually make a difference.
What sets me apart is that I’ve been where you are.
I’m not just teaching theory; I’m sharing strategies that have worked for me and for the many moms I’ve helped along the way. And I keep things simple, because I know that when you’re balancing a million things, you don’t need more complexity—you need clarity, focus and actionable advice.
One thing I’ve learned over the years is that success doesn’t happen overnight.
It takes persistence, consistency, and a willingness to keep moving forward, even when things get tough. There were times in my journey when I faced setbacks, but I never let them stop me. And I want you to know that you can overcome anything if you just keep going.
It’s easy to get discouraged when things don’t happen as quickly as you’d like, but trust me, every small step you take is moving you closer to your goal. I’m here to help you navigate those tough moments and remind you that you’ve got what it takes to succeed.
Today, I’m focused on empowering moms to build businesses that give them financial freedom and flexibility. I believe that every mom has the potential to create something amazing, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
I’ve made it my mission to help 100,000 moms like you build businesses that not only provide income but also allow you to live life on your own terms intentionally.
Imagine being able to contribute to your family financially while still having the time and energy to be fully present for the ones you love!
That’s the future I want to help you create.
If you’re ready to take the leap and start building the business of your dreams, I’m here to help you make it happen. Whether you’re just getting started or looking to grow an existing business, I’ll show you how to work smarter, not harder, so you can achieve success without burning out!
I believe in you, and I know you have what it takes.
Together, we can build something amazing—something that gives you the freedom, flexibility, and fulfillment you deserve.
