Your story is fabulous!! Love the Lemon Tree! I planted 3 in my back and side yard!
I have always used an addition of 🍋🌲!!
Prior to the Lemon Trees I was a Sequoia Redwood (Aptos Blue). My favorites!
Thank you so much for sharing your talents and success! You have no fear!!. I have even blessed a house and they now call it Lemontree Lodge as I suggested!! That’s another step. Would love to talk to you about that given an opportunity! Best to you and I found you via a Substack forward.
Keep going and I am at the elder stage of life. Each Day is A Gift, That’s why we call it the Present. I look forward to reading more!
Hi, Veronica. I am JD. This is an amazing comeback story. I am glad you were able to do it.
I am sorry, but I have to ask a newbie Substack question. Twice now, I have attempted to write an introduction post and as far as I can tell, It has not happened. Can you help me figure out what I am doing wrong?
That's so encouraging! So many terrible things happened during that time but it's nice to hear how others recognized an opportunity to to reset and flourish! 🍋 🍋 🍋
My life also changed around the same time 2020-2021, it was the start of my writing journey.
The name of my Substack is based on the blog I started back in 2020 about everything mindset but adding the idea about planting our own lemon trees is more stronger I feel, more deep. Thank you for the wisdom 😊
I love this story and the philosophy behind your Substack publication. I also really appreciate your combination of mindset, business, and well-being. There’s a myth out there that you can compartmentalize these parts of your life, but they are so integrated, and knowing that can make all the difference in harnessing them to pull you in the direction of your dreams.
Writing for me is about self-expression and sharing what matters to me. While some people suggest to niche, I'm all about exploring and sharing what you value. That's how I ended up with these 3 pillars under my vision of unlocking personal potential.
I'm very happy you joined my Medium publication too!
My entry point was LinkedIn: I started writing there before I started writing anywhere else. I started to build my community there and from there I started on Medium, then Substack, wrote my first book, etc.
I would say, pick the network where you have the biggest footprint (for me it was LinkedIn because I was in the corporate world for many years), and build from there.
I lived in Brisbane when I went to uni. Next year, I will spend about 2 weeks in Perth and WA, 1 week in Melbourne and the rest of the time in Qld. I have friends in Cairns and Mackay so a trip or 2 up there. The balance will be spent in Brisbane and Gold coast where the other friends live. Funny I was just chatting with a friend who has rental units so I might just stay in one place for awhile and do short trips.
Do you mean the lemons in the title? I have the emojis extension on my Mac keyboard. They are catchy, right? I want to be known as the lemon tree lady 🌳🍋🌳🍋

Wow, that is one hell of a hero origin story, Veronica! I was wondering where the name of your publication came from so it was great to read this.

Excellent !
Thank you so much, Elizabeth.

If I may ask, How did you start in a place where you had minimum network and connections?
My entry point was LinkedIn: I started writing there before I started writing anywhere else. I started to build my community there and from there I started on Medium, then Substack, wrote my first book, etc.
I would say, pick the network where you have the biggest footprint (for me it was LinkedIn because I was in the corporate world for many years), and build from there.
I need this. ☺️
Congrats on all your success so far - it's been remarkable to read your posts these past few weeks.
Thank you, Richard! I hope it not only encourages others but also gives them some ideas on how to get started. Cheers!
I'm sure it will - thanks for sharing.

Lovely! That part of the world is wonderful. I love the nature, lifestyle, easy-going vibe...Good old Goldie!
I love the inspiration and the pic.
Australia is wonderful. I lived there for a year and I am going back for about 3 months next year.
But I have to ask, how did you add the little lemons and limes?
Lovely! Where about in Australia?

love the pic that you chose. would love to go to Australia one day.
It was the picture of the day I decided to start writing. That's why I picked it even though at the time I had no idea what those steps meant...
Australia is a wonderful country, I hope you make it there too!
That's so amazing when you actually think about it.
You have shown us what is possible, if you do take the next step. not just when things are going well but in un certain times as well.
I’m kind of scared of Australia 😂
But I plan to visit one day.
I think everyone can relate to starting over from scratch!
Hahaha, what do you mean scared?? Of the wildlife? yes, that's pretty scary, hahaha!
YESS!!
the wildlife...
Even the Kangaroos are dangerous....
Not to mention the swarms of box jelly fish.
All the snakes. Spiders.
Rouge camels.
Its like Armageddon needed to get some practice in!
