For most of my life, I believed that the only path to success was to study hard, earn a good degree and climb the corporate ladder. Until recently, that’s exactly what I did. I graduated from university with a Bachelor’s in Business Analytics and dedicated the beginning of my career to cultivating my technical expertise.Then, in April 2024, I decided to take the leap and go all in on my own business, Lunaire. This shift has significantly changed both my lifestyle and mindset. I’ve learnt that success doesn’t have to mean earning a fancy job title. Instead, it can be about managing my own time and achieving financial freedom, and now that’s what I’m working towards as I scale the business. Join the club Already a member?
