This is my story….
When they say that no great achievement in life occurs without being met with great obstacles or significant challenges, well, they weren’t lying.
On June 2, 2020 At 7:00p my online retail boutique went LIVE: www.p9nstyleboutique.com
I was beside myself thinking about what to write or how to justify my decision to move forward with my plan to launch my boutique today. I’d worked in silence on this project over the past few months, working until the wee hours at night and into the early morning hours sourcing manufacturers, battling depression and my own self-doubt due to my coronavirus induced quarantine.
Just when I didn’t think it could get any worse, exactly one week ago the whole world watched the murder of an unarmed black man that incited violence I never thought I would witness with my own eyes in my lifetime.
And while none of these events have anything directly to do with my consulting business or with the online retail store I dreamt for years of operating, my WHY becomes even more so important: and that is to prove to myself and other women who look like me or who are hesitant to pursue the hard things that they can achieve anything they apply themselves to. That giving up isn’t an option and that doing the things we fear or resist are the things we absolutely MUST do.
Is this timing ideal? HECK NO!!! But I do myself a disservice as well as dishonor the years of sacrifice made by all members of my immigrant family by not moving forward, despite my discomfort and despite my worry for the future of our lives together in this country.
Whether you choose to support my business or not by making a purchase or by helping me build brand awareness and telling a family member or friend, I appreciate you for taking the time to read this.
Wishing you all peace and harmony, xGG
