Wind of Change‏

"Everyone should carefully observe which way his heart draws him, and then choose that way with all his strength"(Hasidic saying)

When Maya and I began our journey six months ago, we couldn't have imagined what we were about to begin. Before taking off together, as is appropriate for two entrepreneurs, we recharged our batteries and took off when we're both determined and full of motivation to succeed. The fuel we filled up with back then still carries us today.

In the life of any venture or adventure, there comes a time when you have to step outside of the non-stop ‘doing' which makes it all happen, look inside, and ask yourself - "Is this what I intended when I first began?"

When two people begin the journey, it's twice as difficult - there is another gut to listen to, another set of eyes to stand before as you ask questions and reach conclusions.

While re-thinking our venture we came to understand that not only has the venture as we imagined it has come to an end, but so has the partnership. We have reached the end of our joint path and have come to a fork - we must now continue on our separate ways. We are leaving, with much love and appreciation, a period full of challenge, difficulty, achievement and strength; and are taking with us knowledge, experience, wisdom and a tool kit that anyone would be grateful to have.

But please, the world of female enterprise need not worry; we are continuing -Each of us to enthusiastically develop her own new venture.

Good to have you!
