Wendy
Being a business owner is definitely not for the faint hearted, that's for sure. There's a lot of smoke and mirrors out there, isn't there? If you believe everything that you read, it's the work life balance lifestyle. You've just touched on it yourself and Pam 2007 to 2011, it's four years of you having to work together when there's two of you in the business. It's a family business. Gosh, that's a lot riding on it. You've got to have that true belief.

And actually, build a business. And knowing that the failure rate is pretty high, within three years, half of businesses shut down. That don't make it. That's just within three years. That's horrible. I think it's something like within seven to ten years, only one in ten of those businesses are still going, oh, my God, what a horror stpry. But if you stick with it, and that's the opportunity too, because so many people give up and they don't realise that this is a marathon and not a sprint. Because one day, as you said before, you're on top of the world. You think, this is the greatest day of my life. I'm so glad I started a business. And the next day you're like, what did I do?

That's why my heart goes out to any entrepreneur and business owner.
