I just registered at Ladies Who Launch. (I am so excited!) I currently get your newsletter of featured entrepreneurs. It has helped me immensely to continue to have the hunger and drive to want my own business. (I am a divorced, single mom who has become very conscious of the future what I want to achieve and ensuring a good future for my beautiful and smart daughter.) I am a prior active duty Marine with over 12 years of civilian federal government experience and currently I am a Financial Management Specialist. I am not an entrepreneur (yet) and I don’t know what I want to do yet when I grow up. I am the person who wears several hats and makes it happen. I am seeking a mentor to possibly overload me so I can get to rollin… You get the picture! I know I have to decide what it is that I want to do and survey the environment to see if it’s feasible. Is there anyone out there who can help me? Feedback please.

Many appreciated

Hi Stephanie,
It sounds like you have your hands full! Definitely check out our Incubator program. If you go to “Find an Incubator” you can see if we have one near you. I joined the Incubator to figure out my next “project” and it was a tremendous catalyst/life changer for me.
Best,
Stella

Hello,

I am 36 years old and interested in starting my own business and have an idea about what I would like to do but not sure how to get started. Any suggestions?

kareng -- July 25th, 2008 at 1:18 am

Hello

I have recently started my own filming business, at the moment looking to start on an advertisement a 30 sec trailer thinking this would grab attention the most, any advice or helpful knowledge on this task would be great

aswift -- July 29th, 2008 at 3:17 pm

Ladies the best thing you can do when you want to get started is join our community, read the articles and JOIN AN INCUBATOR. These forums include other women who can help you, a Ladies Who Launch trained facilitator and access to other workshops that can help you learn, grow
and succeed. Check for an Incubator under our Incubators tab and see what’s in a city near you. Everyone can launch–you just need the right
support and tools!

sarahvbeck -- August 6th, 2008 at 8:36 am

All of the tools in your resource section are excellent- thanks for sharing! I would like to kow when an incubator will be coming to West Palm Beach, Florida? :)

I joined Ladies who launch recently. I am a 35 year old military spouse. I have moved so many times with my husband’s career, and absolutely love a new adventure and traveling the world. Currently we are in Japan. After staying home for nearly 7 years with my children, I am very ready to go out there and do something for me. I am scared because I don’t know how to get started and I feel like I don’t have the experience to start my own business. I have an idea of something I would like to market. Does anyone have any words of advice for getting started? I am so excited about the next chapter of my life.

infin8gurl -- August 18th, 2008 at 2:45 pm

I joined a while ago and then fell out of touch, I finally got Grace Body Essentials up and running!!!

I think everyone needs to watch The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch. The program is extremely inspiring. Excellent info that everyone can use.
The next step is to get up every day and work on your new biz. For those of who say there is not enough time in the day, spend 15 minutes. My biz partner and I worked 2 jobs for 4 years before we could transition full time into our new biz. You need to be disciplined and resiliant.

Hello: I’ve been inspired to write, reading about all of the energy around starting new businesses. I just wanted to people to know about another resource: The New Having It All. We run workshops to help women figure out their passions. There are a lot of job boards out there helping women find out how to go back to work, but we believe it’s so important to figure out, first, the “what” - what do i want to do when i go back to work, or start my new business, or send my kids off to school. Best of luck to all of you. Marguerite Dorn

Is anybody else having a hard time trying to print these templates? I’m pressing print and they’re only printing 1 or 2 pages or nothing at all? They’re such great documents, it’s disappointing not to be able to print them when it says you can.
