Why I Got Involved - Sam Flynn


From a young age I've always had the mentality of 'I can do anything I want to do'. It is this that led me to start my first business at 24 years old and my second at 25 years old, despite the doubts of those around me!

I believe this mentality can often come about from adversity and my childhood definitely fits into that bracket! Having grown up with an alcoholic father who earnt no money and spent some time in prison, and living off my mother's part-time cleaning wage, I didn't have a similar life to that of my school friends. And yet, I always achieved more than they did. I was top of the class, my school's student of the year and a straight A student. I knew what I wanted in adulthood was a life different to that of my childhood, particularly for my own children when I am blessed with them.

I am one of the happiest people I know! I am deliriously in love with my husband (cheesy as that sounds) and can't believe how lucky I am! I'm achieving new things every day and love being my own boss!

For this reason, I really wanted to get involved with VDay in some way when I was told about it. The social media side is perfect for me (this being my second business!) and I really hope I can help make VDay a success!!

So, please please please go buy your tickets so we can help more women achieve their dreams!
