Launching at 40 w Carrie Melanson (my mom‪)‬ Freedom Lifestyle

    • Entrepreneurship

Carrie quit her job, moved to a new city and reinvented herself as an entrepreneur. She did all of this at 40 and I'm blessed to call her my mom; the original girlboss in my life.  
As the owner of Chaos Control Home Staging, Carrie leverages her natural talents of organizing and decorating homes to create freedom for herself. For over twenty years, Carrie worked an office job that provided minimal flexibility, while balancing the parenting of two children. When she remarried and had the opportunity to move to a new city, she leveraged the moment to reinvent herself and create her version of free. Carrie's been living the Freedom Lifestyle for ten years and is loving it.

Her experience working in government for over 20 years  What motivated her to try entrepreneurship   How she booked her first paying customer   Her bootstrapping strategy for growth   Advice for launching a business mid-career   How to support entrepreneurial children
