I was never really entrepreneur material and my ambition was to get hired or become a good entertainer. Making people happy really drove me forward,

If we looked at the history of business, it tells us that men started businesses while women stayed home, have children, and kept the home clean. This was way…..back, bear in mind. Please don’t take this the wrong way.

The scene has changed, of course. There are more women entrepreneurs now than ever before.

Around 252 million women around the world are entrepreneurs, and another 153 million women operate well-established businesses. The percentage of female entrepreneurs has increased by 114% in the last 20 years.
