This blog is for women like me who want to start a blog because they have a burning desire to get their message out there, build a business and share something.
They might be experts in a certain field, or they may have lived through something really hard, tragic, dangerous, or extraordinary, one thing is certain, their life has given them knowledge they would like to share.
I have always thought I get my strong maternal instincts and love of children from my Irish grandmother. Sadly that was not the only thing I inherited. Of her 9 surviving children, 5 were alcoholics. My wonderful kind charismatic larger than life father died of the disease when I was 12.
A few years later, after a year in London where I “Flirted” with modeling and Anorexia. I moved to Switzerland to attend University. Met the love of my life, married very young and had three wonderful children. The years that followed were blissfully happy… Then they were not.
On the 31st of May last year I celebrated a very special Anniversary.
It had been 25 years since I stood in one of the men’s toilets of a Swiss Psychiatric Hospital desperately gulping down as much vodka as I could swallow before the male nurse managed to get the door open and snatch away my bottle. That was my last drink! The day before this incident, my exhausted parents had taken me to see a world-famous Addiction specialist. This lady, was tough as they come and a staunch advocate of “Letting people hit Rock bottom”.
I created Blogissima to help older women who are stuck because of fear and their own Limiting Beliefs change their MINDSET and build the Lifestyle they dream of.
My No1 Goal is TO HELP YOU GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY and take ACTION.
A special welcome to older moms of teenagers, and all women who are sick and tired of financial worries and feeling scared about how they are going to pay their bills. One of the best ways to build Emotional and Financial Security is to start a blog and create multiple streams of online income.
