Empowering Women in Business: Michele Burchfield's Entrepreneurial Journey
Michele Burchfield, co-founder of Blume Honey Water, defied expectations by starting her own company in her mid-50s. Her bold move reflects a broader trend: women now represent 40% of new entrepreneurs in the United States, driven by a desire for independence and self-determination.
A recent survey by Paychex underscores this trend, showing that women are eager to start businesses to work for themselves, addressing issues like the gender pay gap and limited advancement opportunities. Burchfield's story inspires women to seize control of their careers and pursue their entrepreneurial dreams, contributing to a more inclusive and empowering business landscape.
