F*ck Ups and Bust Ups

Have you ever listened to someone’s story and thought, “Can all this possibly happen to one person?”

 

Well, it did to Angela.

 

This is not a self-help guide nor a business book- this is the reality of things that can and do go drastically wrong in the business world. Everything thrown at her throughout her business life has made it one huge roller coaster ride. But for all the ups and downs self-employment brought her, she wouldn’t change it for the world.

 

After twenty-five years in business, she is no millionaire but thrives to become one. However, she has spent millions on shoes in the last ten years, so maybe on paper, she has been.

 

Her dream is to retire to the island of Capri and go back to her family roots. The next five years are all about that dream.

 

Be inspired and but be warned – this is not a sugar-coated story but the real life of a business owner.

 

 

THE INVISIBLE GIRL

You can read my full story here, from when I was ten years old and what happened to me. I was admitted to a psychiatric unit at fifteen and continued to suffer throughout my adult life with feelings of self-hatred, fear, darkness and not knowing who I was. I used addictions to help me to cope on the outside when the inside was chaotic. I finally found my healing and had a burning desire to share this with the universe to give love, hope and inspiration to others in pain.

Don’t tell me the moon is shining; show me the glint of light on broken glass

Anton Chekhov
