Becoming Who You Are

This is a post with a special purpose.

I’m writing this because I want to tell you about my plans to turn Becoming Who You Are into a business. I’m really excited about Start-Up Training School, which is run by Lea and Jonathan Woodward, the people behind Location Independent. They are offering three scholarships to this course, and are asking certain questions as part of this, which I’ve answered below.

I hope these answers give you an idea of where Becoming Who You Are is heading in the future and something to look forward to. Lea and Jonathan are incredibly generous in providing this opportunity but, whatever the outcome is, it’s been incredibly helpful for me to consider and answer their questions, and realise just how much this venture could influence my life in the future.

So here goes:

What impact does/will your business have? What difference will it make? This can be on any level – e.g. your life, your family, your community or the world. If you don’t have an existing business yet, describe the potential impact of your idea.

Becoming Who You Are provides resources and information that support and empower other people to begin or continue their personal development. I want to create a community of people who are passionate about personal development and self-growth, including facilities like a forum. I would use the Startup Training School to help me produce my own affordable tools and courses to share what I’ve learned on my own journey, as well as coaching sessions for people who are on their own journeys. I don’t believe that finances or cost should be a barrier to anyone becoming more involved in personal development and self-growth, and the site currently provides information and resources about different types of counselling and personal growth tools on a donation-only basis.

Turning Becoming Who You Are into a full-time venture will enable me to give my children the upbringing I want to give them, with me able to spend my time at home with them. I want to be an entrepreneur and make a living working full-time on the site, doing something I feel passionate about and something that fits in with my values. I intend to be location independent and turning Becoming Who You Are into a business would allow me to do that. Inevitably, immersing myself in the personal development world for a large part of my day will impact on my own self-growth, which in turn will have a positive effect on my personal and professional lives.
