True, I don’t have sick leave, paid holidays or a big group of colleagues to conspire and socialise with. But I choose my hours, work with incredible people who have also turned my life around, make more money than in any previous ‘paid’ employment and get 100 percent job satisfaction.
I’ve been at home to see my children grow and I’ve never missed a nativity play. I have a great work-life balance, and most precious of all, I have complete autonomy.
The satisfaction of seeing my business grow, discovering new skills (such as public speaking and social media), making my own money and discovering new ways to increase my profits is immense.
