I’m Anita and I’m an ex-corporate accountant and a successful female entrepreneur who specializes in mentoring and digital course creation.
My professional journey started nearly 25 years ago in Poland during a deep economic crisis. I got married quite young and by the age of 30, I already had two lovely sons. Although my life was very busy and hectic, I didn’t give up on myself. I decided to fulfil my dream and become a chartered accountant.
In 2006 I made a life-changing decision and emigrated to Ireland. With just a suitcase, two young children and little money in my pocket, I was determined to chase my dream. It was the toughest decision I ever made but I never regretted it.
Working in corporate finance, I completed my ACCA qualification and it was a tough journey. Working full-time and looking after a family made it very challenging. But I made it through!
Working as a corporate accountant for over 20 years had a serious impact on my health. Both physical and mental.
A few years ago, I experienced a full-blown burnout which pushed me to finally quit my accounting job.
At first, I didn’t know what was wrong with me. I couldn’t put a finger on what exactly the problem was. I just knew that my symptoms made it impossible for me to go on like that.
Constant exhaustion. Stress and anxiety. Poor concentration. Lack of energy. Lost happiness and joy. I just knew I hit the wall and had to do something about it.
But I found the solution and broke the cycle.
When I was starting my accounting business, everything was so scary and new, but on the other hand, it was very exciting.
The transition from the corporate world to running my own business remotely was more challenging than I expected. There were days of frustration and helplessness. But I didn’t lose my spirit and faith.
I was very clear on my WHY and this is what guided me through all the difficult times. And what is my WHY?
I don’t want to exchange my time for money and sacrifice my health and well-being anymore. The FREEDOM I get from working for myself is worth the effort.
Since I started my online accounting business I have been working remotely, TOTALLY. I’m location-independent and pursue my passion for travelling.
My work-life balance and well-being have improved tremendously!
On the other hand, I wouldn’t be where I am now if had chosen a different path. It was a journey. Even though it was tough at times, it happened for a reason.
The only regret I have is that I could have made this transition earlier.
That’s why I decided to help my fellow accountants who want to quit their 9-5 corporate jobs, start an online business and reclaim their FREEDOM.
And I love doing it!
