👏👏I'M A FINALIST for a National Award!
A few weeks ago, I shared that I was nominated… and today, I’m incredibly proud (and still a little shocked!) to say I’m a FINALIST for a Woman Who Award!
I never ever expected that my story would be acknowledged and this recognition means the world. I simply shared my journey of how I went from humbly hanging my paintings in the local park to owning my High Street art galleries and an online gallery. How I was an artist, a teacher, a mum, and a wife, all whilst silently fighting diagnosed anxiety. Its been hard, especially losing my Pateley Bridge Gallery, and it still is hard but if you’re chasing a dream, keep going. You never know where it might lead.
The Founder, Sandra Garlick’s vision for these Awards is to create a network of support for women who undertake the entrepreneurial journey solo and celebrating the spirit of female entrepreneurs across the UK. I can't wait to share in the celebrations and to meet other amazing women in Coventry next month when the winners will be announced.
