Welcome to the SHEblog.

SHEBlog- "For Women In Business."

To me, the title always seemed a bit empowering but as I got older, I understood and grasped the concept of "Empowered Women Empower Women" and that's what SHEBlog is all about. This platform does not promote any form of discrimination towards genders but this is where I share my personal tips, tricks and tactics as a student, entrepreneur, a female and most importantly, a person.

Typically, websites and other blogs share the positive outcomes of one's efforts. SHEBlog intends to share the good, the bad and the ugly with you.

“Fearlessness is not the absence of fear. It’s the mastery of fear. It’s about getting up one more time than we fall down.” —Arianna Huffington, editor in chief of The Huffington Post.

Well, Arianna, I've been falling for a very very long time. Let's face it, job hunting is not only stressful, but it's also depressing. I've spent the past year looking for jobs. However, I was a bit "too educationally qualified" for some of the positions and didn't have sufficient experience for others. I've been to countless interviews and barely received any form of feedback as to why I didn't get the job. By now, I felt as though I wasn't good enough, even though I knew I had untapped potential and the capabilities. The rejection and feeling of ambivalence motivated me to further my education. I know what you're thinking, "if the issue is you being too educationally qualified, why would you further your studies?" But to be honest, finding a job and entering the working world was somewhat apprehensive to me. At the same time, I wanted to have a purpose and this prompted me to pursue my own small business. I did no form of planning or long term thinking about it. I created two flyers on Canva, a poorly designed logo, and an Instagram account. I sat on my bed thinking whether or not I should proceed with this but, I swallowed my fear and tapped my screen... and there I was...online and operating. Everything you do in life comes with a risk, the hack to this is to find yourself a support system, a loyal and genuine group of people who will support you and encourage you no matter what you're doing. I can honestly say that I've been blessed with one of the greatest support systems that this cruel world can offer. All you need in life is a little push but hey, don't forget to be your support system too! I'm proud of myself and what I've been able to accomplish. So those of you struggling in your careers, school, or those just trying to find a purpose...go ahead and create it for yourself. They say that "the future is female," but they've been saying that for a long time now. The future is now and sis...it's your time to shine. You do you, set your goals, take some risks, and make yourself proud!
