Starting a business that suits your lifestyle with Sue Parker

<p>Liezl interviews Sue Parker, a female lifestyle entrepreneur who shares her journey of leaving her corporate job to pursue her passion and create a business that allows her the time and location freedom she desired as a mother of three.</p> <p>Sue opens up about her experience with burnout and the challenges she faced in the corporate world, as well as the pivotal moment when she realised she needed to make a change. She offers valuable insights and tips on how to find balance between work and family life, build an audience, and transition from a corporate job to entrepreneurship. </p> <p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p> <ul> <li>Finding balance between work and family life is a common struggle, but it is possible to make changes and create a lifestyle that allows for both.</li> <li>Burnout can be a wake-up call and a catalyst for change. It is important to prioritise self-care and listen to your own needs.</li> <li>The corporate world often does not support the needs of working parents, and there is a need for cultural change to accommodate more flexible schedules and work-life balance.</li> <li>Building an audience and creating an email list are important steps in starting a business. It is essential to focus on providing value and connecting with your target audience.</li> <li>Making small changes and setting clear boundaries can help create time for pursuing your passion and building a business, even while juggling a demanding corporate job and family responsibilities.</li> <li><strong>BEST MOMENTS</strong></li> </ul> <p>"I hit burnout. And that was probably one of the worst experiences of my life." </p> <p>"Being a parent to me is the first and foremost, the biggest, most important job in the world. But after that, I do have a you, an identity, a purpose to fulfil in the world." </p> <p>"When you fill that cup up and when you feel like you're doing something good, you're progressing, it makes you show up better at home and with the kids." </p> <p>"Entrepreneurship is a roller coaster. We go in these ebbs and flows of self-doubt and it's training and pushing past the resistance, building that strength, building the really good, healthy habits that keep us going." </p> <p><strong>VALUABLE RESOURCES</strong></p> <p>Sue Parker - <a href="https://sueparker.io">https://sueparker.io</a></p> <p>Sue's community <a href="https://sue.team/">https://sue.team/</a></p> <p>Sue is on Instagram or TikTok @Iamsueparker</p> <p><strong></strong>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/inthespotlightwithliezl">https://www.facebook.com/inthespotlightwithliezl</a><br>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/inthespotlightwithliezl">https://www.instagram.com/inthespotlightwithliezl</a><br>Facebook personal: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/lcolditzvanrooyen/">https://www.facebook.com/lcolditzvanrooyen/</a><br>Instagram personal: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/liezl_colditzvanrooyen/">https://www.instagram.com/liezl_colditzvanrooyen/</a><br>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/van-rooyen-liezl/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/van-rooyen-liezl/</a></p> <p><strong>ABOUT THE PODCAST </strong></p> <p>In the Spotlight was born as a platform to share, broadcast and promote the interesting, wonderful and inspiring things that some of the people who crossed Liezl’s path have done.
