If you have a business, could you describe it and how you started it?
Aurielle Mosley: In 2018, I found myself helping a student with their coursework. It didn't take long for me to realize that this young teen was struggling to identify even the basic letters of the alphabet. In that instant, I resolved to take proactive steps and contribute to the solution. My initial intention was to create a simple booklet to teach the alphabet to this student. However, as in that instant, I resolved to take proactive steps and contribute to the solution. From its humble beginnings of simply teaching the basics of the alphabet, this idea has flourished into a successful and widely respected brand that is recognized by many.

What challenges have you faced as a woman in your field, and how have you overcome them?
Aurielle Mosley: As a woman in my field, I have realized that the greatest obstacle to my success often begins within me. I often grapple with self- doubt, questioning whether my actions are right and if I'm approaching things correctly. When these doubts arise, I've learned to step back, allowing my mind to clear before returning to the task. Another significant hurdle is convincing others of the critical importance of this company and brand. In a world filled with numerous distractions, making education a top priority becomes challenging. To counter this, I remind myself of the saying, "farmers who only plant in fair weather or timing will never harvest." This mantra motivates me to persist, regardless of the difficulties. I keep plowing forward, trusting that with time and perseverance, the harvest will come.

Could you share an impactful story or experience that has shaped your journey and outlook on life?
Aurielle Mosley: During my teenage years, I faced a significant challenge as an athlete. In a move that seemed utterly irrational to many, I decided to step away from my sport during what should have been my prime years. At the time, the decision was met with doubt from others, but looking back, it proved to be one of the most gratifying choices I've ever made.
The turning point came when a teammate's mother took the time to impart a valuable lesson about perseverance. She helped me understand that the essence of the lesson extended far beyond the realm of sports. She motivated me to navigate through the tumult, reassuring me that a gratifying outcome awaited— even if it required stepping away from the familiar.
Her insights helped me understand that the decision belonged to me. It was perfectly acceptable to feel at ease with it. As an adult and now a business owner, I often reflect on that pivotal moment. Her guidance serves as a guiding light, empowering me to make challenging yet necessary decisions in my professional life. She taught me the importance of trusting my instincts and having the courage to embrace unconventional paths, reminding me that sometimes, the most impactful decisions are the ones that others might not immediately understand.

What does being an empowering boss mean to you, and how do you strive to embody that in your everyday life and interactions with others?
Aurielle Mosley: Being an empowering boss, in my view, involves acknowledging that empowerment serves as both a gift and a valuable tool. I view empowerment as a precious gift because it has the potential to transform individuals, enabling them to tap into their capabilities. Simultaneously, empowerment is a tool that can be extended to others as a resource for growth and expansion. I believe sharing these gifts and tools with others is a blessing, fostering an environment where everyone can thrive.
I strive to embody this perspective by emphasizing trust and leadership over mere authority in my everyday life and interactions with others.

I aim to create a supportive atmosphere where individuals feel encouraged to explore their potential, make decisions, and learn from their experiences. By being a leader of trust, I provide the space for others to flourish, using empowerment as both a gift and a tool to facilitate their personal and professional growth.

How do you prioritize self-care and maintaining a healthy work-life balance? what tips can you offer other busy women?
Aurielle Mosley: Prioritizing self-care and maintaining a healthy work-life balance begins with recognizing that I am a self-first individual. This perspective doesn't imply selfishness; instead, it acknowledges that I cannot be good or great in any aspect of my life if I neglect my well-being. I wholeheartedly commit to a schedule that I create to protect and nurture my mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. I understand that the environment around me can only be as positive and nurturing as I am to myself. Starting with self-care is my fundamental principle, and I believe other busy women can benefit by embracing this mindset. By setting boundaries, honoring personal needs, and making self-care a non-negotiable part of their routines, they can achieve a healthier work-life balance and overall well-being. Remember, self-care is not selfish; it's a vital investment in one's own happiness and fulfillment.
