Not too long ago, I was working a 9 to 5 job at a non-profut foundation. I loved why I was there but I did not love being there. I was over-worked, under-paid and under-appreciated. But the economy was heading south so the thought of quitting never crossed my mind.
Then on May 19th, I was let go. What a devasting day that was for me. When I got home, I cried, I prayed, I yelled and I was just sad. I went through a range of emotions. If you've never lost a job, its hard to explain. I felt like a failure and completely defeated. But that didn't last long...thank you Lord!
During this time I was introduced to Rodan and Fields Dermatologists by my good friend Linda. I had no intentions of signing up, I just went to the meeting to support her. Once the meeting was over, I looked at Linda and asked her..."Where do I sign up?"
My why...I never want to sit across the table from someone who starts off by telling me how wonderful I am, what a great spirit and attitude I have but end the conversation with...I have to let you go. As God as my witness, that will neve be my fate again.
Owning my own business has been so rewarding and I am super excited about it!!
