Abstract

Born into a business family in Aichi Prefecture, the author honed her business sense while watching her mother, a shrewd businesswoman, take the lead. She married her elder brother and became a mother of two sons and two daughters. In her 40s, she fell ill and began studying metal engraving. After winning an award for her pearl tiaras, she was able to accompany her idol, Yumi Katsura, to the Paris Collection. Through this connection, she is currently active as the Tokai branch manager of the Around Beauty Club. With a business sense inherited from her mother, her eldest son started his own business in Shibuya, Tokyo, and her eldest daughter in Nagoya. She will also focus on supporting people who want to start their own businesses. The content of the book conveys how to make efforts to realize what you think you want.
