Entrepreneurial Journey
Ms Waldron described her experience as a woman in business as an adventure. She stated that she had no prior business experience before starting Serendipity PR, drawing inspiration from her mother. She noted the challenges faced, including instances of gender bias and feeling unprepared for the difficulties involved.
She explained that she established her own business during a global recession while also managing childcare responsibilities and lacking local family support. This led her to work from home, a practice she noted was ahead of its time regarding hybrid working models. Ms Waldron acknowledged making initial errors, such as giving away ideas and not always receiving payment.
