Hey everyone,
I think I will answer my own question while typing this but your thoughts / advice will be gratefully received.
After having kids, I have decided to pursue my passion and am currently studying to be a Beauty Therapist. At the same time, I have done my spray tanning qualification and have set up a mobile tanning business. I am also working 15 hours a week in a supermarket to keep an income coming in, have a 2 and a 3 year old as well as a husband who works full time.
I thought setting up the business would be easy but I was so wrong! I am always working and I have only had 1 practice client at the moment (more booked in). I am up at 6 getting the boys ready and try to fit in some marketing throughout the day. Every week at college we have a test about what we have learnt the week before and last week I failed as I just did not have the time to revise.
I am thinking of just biting the bullet and cutting to 10 hours split over Sunday and Monday, freeing up the rest of the week for revision and tanning. Then I thought of leaving all together as that may help me drive the business forward.
All I know is I cannot keep going like this. When you all started did you have other jobs?? Or did you go in at the deep end??
There is no doubt in my mind that I have made the right career choice, I just also need to learn to juggle! xx
