My Journey of Launching with Purpose
For two decades, I thrived in the financial services industry, navigating leadership, strategy, and high-pressure decision-making. But in early 2024, I took a leap that many dream of but few dare to make—I left behind the security of my senior role to launch my own coaching and consultancy business, Your Gob.
The transition was exhilarating, terrifying, and, at times, overwhelming. I went from leading teams to being a solo entrepreneur, from structured days to a world where I had to create my own momentum. But at the heart of it all was one powerful drive: a passion for empowering others to find clarity, overcome barriers, and step into their potential.
Breaking Barriers & Building Beliefs
Launching Your Gob wasn’t just about starting a business; it was about redefining my own beliefs. Like many women stepping into entrepreneurship, I faced imposter syndrome, the pressure to prove myself, and the ever-present question: Am I really cut out for this?
The answer? Yes—but not because I had everything figured out. I was cut out for it because I was willing to figure it out as I went, to learn, adapt, and build something that truly aligned with my values.
Lessons from the Launch
Now, looking back, I see three key lessons that helped me navigate this launch—and might just help you, too:
Clarity is everything. Whether you're launching a business, shifting careers, or simply reassessing your direction, getting clear on your purpose, values, and vision is non-negotiable. Coaching played a huge role in helping me define my 'why.'
You don’t need all the answers—just the next step. If I had waited until I had the 'perfect' plan, Your Gob would still be an idea in my head. Launching is about movement, progress, and trust.
Community is key. Finding networks of like-minded women—like Ladies Who Launch—reminded me that entrepreneurship isn’t a solo journey. Having people who uplift, challenge, and support you is invaluable.
Coaching: The Game-Changer for Women Who Launch
One of the biggest revelations since launching Your Gob is just how powerful coaching can be for women stepping into new chapters. Whether it’s helping you unpack limiting beliefs, set strategic goals, or develop the confidence to take bold action, coaching transforms the way you show up—not just in business, but in life.
If you're standing at the edge of a big decision, wondering if you're ready to take the leap, know this: you already have what it takes. You just need the clarity, the courage, and maybe a little coaching along the way.
Here’s to launching boldly, building belief, and embracing the journey—wherever it leads.
