Failure and mistakes are not a bad thing!! That is the resounding message I'm getting from the ladies I have interviewed. They wouldn't be doing what they were doing if they listened to the negative self talk or were self conscious about what they said or did. When they fail or make a mistake, they just stand up, dust themselves off and travel on to the next 'to do' item from their business plan.
I think that is very powerful feedback and one that I'm slowly coming to terms with myself. At school you are taught to not make mistakes but when you fail your exams or tests, we are taught mistakes and failing are reflections of you not paying attention or studying hard enough.

The Learning Curve Podcast - THE Podcast for Women Entrepreneurs in the Middle East.
How many women do you know that used to have a corporate work life pre-babies and kids and now a few years on would love to get back into the game but can't. They can't because full time work in most cases isn't an option. To start with the available childcare options like nursery centres finish earlier than your full time working day allows. Then after that families need to either employ alternative childcare options, which costs more or ultimately take the decision not to work because there is no flexibility. Its a real problem which many women in the UAE face. They want to contribute to the household income but can't a) the household income would just be absorbed into childcare contributions and b) a lot of employers don't consider flexible working options an opportunity and so don't offer it. So what do women do? Well until now most women would just carry on and don't fulfil their own dreams and ambitions. Angry? Probably. Frustrated? Absolutely!
