Blog 9. I'm done with it.

The journey as an entrepreneur

I am done with it.

Done with the thoughts that often haunt my mind: the hard work, the obstacles I keep overcoming, and the expensive lessons I pay for regularly. And perhaps the toughest one of all: the realization that people are not always who they seem to be. In my head, I have quit La Luz more than 50 times.

Nothing is what it seems.

I do business from the heart

My big dream is to create a brand for women and children. A brand that spreads love through jewelry with a positive message. All of this comes straight from my heart. And sometimes, it all feels a bit different. Today, I would like to take you along with the challenges I face as an entrepreneur every day.

My challenges

Starting a business without formal knowledge or education in this field is a true challenge for me. The question "Why am I actually doing this?" has crossed my mind more than once. I work extremely hard, pay dearly for lessons on personal and financial levels, and stumble along all sorts of obstacles. But what, in fact, is my return?

Obstacles as gifts

Thanks to my continuous self-development, I am getting closer to myself and I am holding on to my big dream. I am beginning to see obstacles as gifts, no matter how difficult they can sometimes be. The expensive lessons are tough. And yet, they shape me into the entrepreneur I want to be. The loving Vanessa is still there. I am trying to become a bit more business-minded, to follow my own path more, and to radiate that as well.

Showing vulnerability gives me growth

Today, I am sharing something vulnerable, something personal. I know that growing and learning go hand in hand with showing your vulnerable side. Through my journey as an entrepreneur, I now see that every obstacle, every doubt, and every setback helps me to grow and become stronger. I am proud of the entrepreneur I am becoming, and I embrace every step on this journey of self-discovery and growth.

Will you help me with my dream to let La Luz grow?
