I am working towards getting my Facebook Fan Page established and also will be speaking at some upcoming Mini-Lecture Series..... Details soon to come! Follow my blog for dates of all Bebe Tresor's upcoming events! So excited about what is soon to come!

Each day, it grows more and more......

A few weeks back, I was inspired. Inspired to do something different. To do something all on my own. The idea is daunting to say the least, but truly my deepest desires coming to life. I thought to myself, that there has to be more. More what, you ask? More to life than just the daily grind of work, sleep, eat and the occasional play. I actually felt like a brainstorm hit me all at once and has not stopped since then.

I've heard it so many times before. Literally a light bulb went off in my head and I thought, "is this what she (Oprah) means?" "When you truly love what you do, you will never work a day in your life again." I'm beginning to see, she was right.

I was working one day, speaking with my co-worker about nothing in particular when she mentioned a topic on a talk show that she saw. And then it hit me... I started talking about an idea that I had years ago and the thought had not crossed my mind for the longest time. I also thought about a dear friend who even asked me to help her find a reputable person. All of sudden the ideas, the thoughts and the feelings of inspiration came over me. Could it be possible, would anyone really use it? So I started putting those ideas down on paper, but my hands could not write as fast as the thoughts streaming out of my head. The excitement of the possibilities literally jolted my soul. It only made sense to me, to create a business that utilizes my skills and the knowledge that I have attained my entire career and cultivate it into use for others. So then it was born, my small business I call Bebe Tresor. 

It's funny when I think back.....I feel like there have been signs for the past couple months. We started receiving magazines, baby formula and baby catalogs mailed to the house. "Is someone playing a trick on me?" "Why are we getting these sent to us?" Now, I see why. It all adds benefit to my purpose. To be a Baby Planner. The title does not even encompass the whole purpose or even the entire benefit of my new found company. Why didn't I put this thought into full force before? It's already out there... Baby Planners. I'm not instilling a new concept. I'm merely enhancing the idea with my knowledge. What better way to put my skills attained in the NICU, PICU and mother-baby to use? Now that I'm a mother, it actually takes those rose colored glasses off and I can see clearly. I really enjoyed doing all the research on all the baby products out there. I used Consumer Reports, Parent rated products, etc to pick what I thought was best for my baby. You can be overwhelmed by the huge array of strollers, car seats and baby bottles that are out there today. I just want to simplify the process and make it easier for new moms. Then, I can take it one step further. I see it more and more these days. Many women who concentrated on their lifestyles and careers put off the idea of starting a family. Now when they feel the time is right, they now are at risk for many complications. I know what those complications can result in, especially after working in the NICU. I can educate new moms on ways to increase their health and decrease their chances of their little one ending up in the NICU. So many times I have heard from parents, "I never knew what a NICU was or even that it existed." The view of a NICU was not a popular stop on the hospital tour. I want to ease the minds of new moms and take the stress out of Baby Planning.

So now my journey has begun and I am taking the leap of faith to start something all on my own. Now the hours I work towards getting my company up and running is not work at all. The one thing I hope I can do for someone who reads this blog is INSPIRE. If I can do it.... so can you.
