Today, we continue the conversation with a red-hot entrepreneur.\xa0 With her online fashion brand Sirens Swimwear really taking off, her technology platform Try@Home changing the game and her e-com lifestyle-mentoring brand in full swing, you wonder how Bettina McLeod has time to be a single mother of her hearing impaired and autistic son.\xa0
We met at a professional development course and this women oozes power and assuredness.\xa0 Growing up in country town Molong, Australia and promptly telling her Mum that she was headed for the big smoke of Sydney to be a fashion designer kind of gives you an idea of what was to come.\xa0 Learning her sales and marketing in real estate and then buying her first business by following author Brad Sugars step-by-step approach.\xa0 I can\u2019t wait to ask her more about this and what happened when she called the infamous Sugars for more advice! She went on to own 15 businesses over the years and so she\u2019s a seasoned veteran who values mentorship and accountability above all!
I love how this woman is not only willing to do whatever it takes to be successful but that she will do the same for others.\xa0 She stands for other female entrepreneurs being successful too.
Can\u2019t wait to get stuck into it Bettina so we can bring more direction and clarity to female entrepreneurs in particular.

The Goods on Bettina:
Bettina McLeod is a visionary leader who blends operational systems and marketing to better the lifestyle and experiences of others. With an entrepreneurial spark that began at the age of 14, Bettina challenged the status quo by leaving school early and diving straight into business.\xa0
She quickly learnt that trading hours for time was not a winning situation, and in order to create the lifestyle she wanted; she would need to become her own boss. This mindset led her into 25 years of business as a multi-passionate entrepreneur before becoming a leader in lifestyle businesses.\xa0
Throughout the years, Bettina has built, grown and transformed numerous lifestyle brands. She has a strategist background, loves to problem solve, and is the current owner of 3 businesses; stunning 1950-60s swimwear label Sirens Swimwear, new technology platform Try@Home, and her e-com lifestyle mentoring brand.
As a single mother of a child with special needs, Bettina knows how important it is to create a balanced, automated and fun lifestyle. When she is not working on her businesses, you can normally find her spending time with her son, her partner, investing in herself or socialising with friends.\xa0
She credits her success to mentors who have championed her along the way, and believes finding a good support network, as well as making time for self-care is key in business. Her mission is to empower others on a global scale to create a lifestyle business which allows for more time, money, flexibility, freedom, and a purposely designed life.
