TV Producer Turned Business Owner Times Two – Franchise Wire Press

I am featured in an article on Franchise Wire all about my personal success story of pivoting from a career in Television to launching a business. After working as a TV Producer for over 16 years, I began to have a family and decided to leave the long days on set and travel for a fresh start closer to home with my little ones. In weighing out my career options, I started down several paths that were not a good fit. Lessons learned, right? I went to graduate school to work on a Master’s Degree, I accepted a 9-5 office job, and even thought about substitute teaching. None of these decisions were what I was meant to be doing. After a great deal of research, I opened a Snapology franchise. My Snapology of Monmouth County business has grown immensely over the past six and a half years and I have learned so much as an entrepreneur. My business is now a staple in my community, I have a wonderful team, and I am able to be the present mom I dreamt about. The best part, it allowed me to launch another business with Second Act Success Career Coaching, so I can coach other women to follow their dreams and begin a second act that truly lights them up. Now as an entrepreneur and career coach, I am a business owner times two and I am so grateful for the twists and turns I have taken on my path to success.
