As any working mum can tell you, running a business and a family at the same time is an almost impossible act. There are never enough hours in the day and most days spill well into the late evening hours.
My story starts with a simple red bump (小包)on my back. Turns out, the bump was actually skin cancer! The diagnosis hit me like a ton of bricks. I was in my mid-20s and living a very healthy life. Cancer at that point was unimaginable. And, yet, it was all too true.
After crying and crying for days, I finally decided to do something positive about my skin cancer diagnosis. After researching, I knew scientists had found that UV(紫外线)exposure as a child leads to skin cancer later in life—especially for fair skinned people—and I did not want my children to suffer the same fate. So, I decided to quit my job and start my own business.
Thus was born SwimZip swimwear—stylish swimsuits with protection that block 99% of those nasty cancer causing UV rays. These cute, sun protective clothes can actually save lives! The choice to follow my passion and help prevent children from getting skin cancer was an easy one, but turning that passion into a successful business, while being a full-time mum, was a whole different story.
Being a mum and business owner has been very difficult. I often feel like I cannot ever give as much energy to parenting or working as I would like. After several busy work days, I know I have to take a break, leave the phone at home, and just go out and give 100% to my child. Of course, by the time I get back to being CEO, the "to-do" list has grown enormous again.
Late (late, late, late!)nights are the norm
