There’s a story of a woman who lived according to the “WHEN” philosophy…and her life went something like this...
I’m going to travel one day... WHEN I have the money
I’m going to spend longer with my kids… WHEN I have the time
I’m going to start writing my book… WHEN I feel more creative
I’m going to mend broken relationships… WHEN I feel like I can learn to forgive
I’m going to quit my work… WHEN I find the courage to do so
I’m going to start my online business…WHEN I’ve done another course
She believed that ONE DAY she would do all these things… but sadly, that day never came for her. 
Little did she realise that the sands of time were running out for her. 
The years went by and she never got to travel, spent little time with her kids, never wrote her book and never quit her job…she died with massive regrets having done nothing she was destined to do.
Are you currently choosing to live like this woman? Are you also playing the “WHEN” game?
If that’s you, what is it going to take for you to realise that you only have ONE PRECIOUS LIFE.
Do the things you want to do because “WHEN” might never come for you. 
It’s never too late to choose a new path. I know you will choose wisely… with this old woman in mind.
Blessings, Maren

Being in business requires you to wear many hats and the pressures to succeed can be overwhelming, especially if you are working with a spouse or close friend.
How often do you hear of partnerships failing between business partners because the pressures of separating business and friendship becomes too much. 
But, it doesn’t have to be that way for you. Working together with a spouse or close friend can be extremely powerful when you maximise each person’s capabilities to the fullest.  
Now, let me be clear. I am NOT a relationship expert but having been married for almost 30 years and working together for almost that entire period with the same man, we have learnt one or 2 lessons along the way which has helped to keep us both sane, still married and still in business together...and YES we do actually still like each other too 😂
Today, Stephen and I am sharing a few things that have worked for us over the last 30 years and can work for you too.

ENJOY!

As a new Mother, when you realise you need an INCOME and you have a DESIRE to stay at home with your newborn, you “make a plan” as they say in South Africa!
And this is exactly what Louisa did - she made a PLAN.

Louisa saw a gap in the market 6 years ago for women wanting to advertise their own businesses online but there were not many options available.
This was an opportunity for her to create something out of necessity and so she got to work.
After 6 months, she only had 100 members so the struggle was very real. This was the time to give up and most people do at this point. However, a burning desire to be a stay at home mum and also earn an online income meant Louisa had to dig deep to make a success.
What transpired next is truly inspiring to all women out there…

I hope you enjoy this episode!

If I were to start an online business with no money, or if I had to start from scratch with no audience, no products and no business, then this is what I would do and this is what YOU can do, if...

You are starting out brand new…
No one knows you…
You haven’t got a product….
You know you need to make an additional income online…especially with rising living costs and unpredictable job prospects...

Yes, it is possible to start an online business with no money or very little money as long as you have a deep desire to create something for you and you are not afraid of doing some work!

If this sounds like YOU, then today’s episode was created especially for you…
