Building a business doesn’t happen overnight.

Building a business doesn’t have a magic fast forward button either.

There’s no miracle ingredient.

Just in case you walked in on my 9th year of entrepreneurship…. Hi! Welcome 🙂

I worked in marketing for 10 years.

Then built a marketing agency.

Then after 6 months, the partnership broke up.

Then I contracted again whilst studying business coaching and got made redundant.

Then I studied 200 hours of yoga teacher training.

Then I freelanced again, whilst teaching yoga.

Then I did another 300 hours of yoga teacher training over the next few years.

Then I started Silou London, whilst studying somatic therapy.

Then the pandemic hit. And I studied even more – yin, pregnancy yoga, trauma studies.

Then I launched The Self Care Space + my coaching courses…

Then I moved to Kenya, then I moved to Bali.

So this did not happen overnight – far from it.

It’s been an up and down roller coaster. Some months I didn’t know how I would pay rent and survive in London.

More recently, I’ve been able to pay my rent in full for the entire year. Swings and roundabouts hey!

📖 What I can tell you is – never stop learning.

👯‍♀️ Surround yourself with people that inspire you and lift you up!

👩🏼‍🏫 Work with people that already have the life and business you desire.

Check their credentials. I see loads of people popping up online with new business courses – but they’ve never run their own online business before – so do your homework!
