If not, when did you realize that it was the right path for you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Honestly, no \u2013 I enjoy the corporate world and the stability it offers. But entrepreneurship has always pulled me. I find it very fun. When I was 10, my parents opened a boutique and put me in charge of it. I would take care of inventory, adjust prices according to the market and competitors\u2026 From there, I just kept finding ways to make money \u2013 selling waffles in stores in Alexandria, Virginia, opening an online shoe store, even getting paid to do other students\u2019 homework in college. Hustle has always been part of who I am.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yumna Global Consulting is my first truly \u201cprofessional\u201d entrepreneurial venture \u2013 the first time I\u2019m pulling together everything I\u2019ve built over 11 years of corporate work and my education in business (MBA, Lean Six Sigma, Scrum Master) and pointing all of it at solving real problems for clients. So, while I can\u2019t say I always knew, I can say every step along the way was preparing me for this one and for whatever is coming next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AZF: How do you feel best supported?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By people that allow me to dream. Thinking partners who will push back when something\u2019s off and celebrate when something works. My family, my mentors, and the women in my community are that for me.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AZF: What motivates you to keep going amidst the challenges that come with being an entrepreneur?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My own story. I wrote <em>Healing Your Silent Scars<\/em> because I believe in the work of building yourself back up, and that same belief carries into the business. Hard days are part of the process, not a sign to stop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a principle I\u2019ve come to live by: never waste a loss. Every setback, every closed door, every project that didn\u2019t land the way I hoped carries a lesson \u2013 and my job is to find it, name it, and carry it forward.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AZF: Describe your perfect Saturday.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A sunbath to start the day \u2013 letting the morning light do its work. Then a long, unhurried bath. Breakfast taken slowly, the way it deserves to be. And finally, settling in with a good book. No rush, no agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AZF: What\u2019s one piece of advice you\u2019d give to a young entrepreneur who is just starting out?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m new to entrepreneurship. I\u2019m still figuring out a lot of things. However, I\u2019ll share what I\u2019m learning in real time: patience and persistence are everything. Results almost never show up on the timeline you imagined. You have to keep showing up, doing the work, refining your offering, having the conversations \u2013 even when nothing visible is happening. The growth is compounding quietly in the background, and one day you look up and realize consistency was the strategy all along.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AZF: What excites you most about being an entrepreneur?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The freedom to design solutions around what a client actually needs, not what fits inside a rigid corporate playbook. Every engagement is a fresh problem to crack, and I get to bring my full toolkit \u2013 analysis, project leadership, stakeholder advisory, change readiness \u2013 without the pressure of staying in one lane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Learn more about Yumna Global Consulting by visiting\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/yumnaglobalconsulting.com\/\">yumnaglobalconsulting.com\u00a0<\/a>or following along on Instagram @<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/yumna_global_consulting\/\">yumna_global_consulting<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"about-the-foundress\" class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>About the Foundress<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Foundress is a creative community of female entrepreneurs established by Coley Arnold.
