It’s been a busy week.
I’ve been working on my new online course, “Be Your Own Stylist”.
I must say I am really happy I’ve finished it!
It’s been my dream to create an online course since 2007. It’s been a long time in the making. But that’s ok because I finally achieved my goal!
I’ve realized that it doesn’t matter how long it takes you to reach a goal. The only thing that counts is you reach it!
But I hear you ask what took you so long to reach it?
Living life, different priorities, and paths, looking after my family, and not having the skills to know how to create an online course.
Back in 2007, I wanted to create an online course that helped people to feel good. I didn’t know what that looked like then, so it really took me all that time to figure it out.
I also think the technology was not as developed back then, so it would have been harder to create. They were still recording information onto DVD’s back then!
So I am grateful for how far technology has come and how much easier it is to create content that can help people.
So what is this course?
It’s a personal styling course for women 50 plus who are looking to regain their sense of style.
To give you the back story as to why I created this course.
Back in 2018, I’d seen a photo of myself (see photo) looking very frumpy and not really caring how I looked. 🤦♀️
Having been a stay-at-home, looking good was not really my priority and this photo was proof. The other reason for my poor appearance was that being in my 50s, I found it hard to buy clothes that didn’t make me look like my 20-something daughter or my 80-year-old mother!
So in an effort to look after myself and my appearance, I started an Instagram account. It was a way for me to document what I was wearing each day and to regain my sense of style. 💁♀️
The bonus to starting my account was I found other 50-plus women who felt the same way! Together we connected over our love of fashion and style. 😊🙏💕
As my account grew, I began to work with brands and became an accidental micro-fashion influencer. 😆
But one thing I found missing in all of it, was that the outfits I showed did not always suit another woman’s body shape or style. 🤔
So I decided to train as a Personal Stylist to help women discover their own unique body shape and style! My idea for the “Be Your Own Stylist” course came from this desire.
So that’s my story!
