It’s OK if your business empire isn’t built overnight with Laura Walker

Quits and Giggles

There are many reasons to make the change from a corporate career to starting your own business.
After a long IVF journey, my guest in this episode, Laura Walker, decided she wanted to be more present for her children. This couldn’t happen in her corporate role, so she chose to retrain and follow her dream of running her own business.
So she trained to be a reflexologist on the side of her job and - like many new business owners - the road wasn’t always smooth.
In this inspiring episode, Laura talks about her experiences with infertility and reflexology that led her down this path, her struggles with self-doubt and dealing with the uncertainty of getting paid irregularly. She also shares why she started coaching with me and the impacts it has had on her business.
