One in four Irish women (24%) would like to start their own business, compared to 30% of men, according to new research conducted by Amárach Research on behalf of the Local Enterprise Offices (LEOs) to mark National Women's Enterprise Day (NWED), taking place nationwide today. The research highlights that while ambition among women remains strong, significant barriers continue to hold many back, particularly financial fear, confidence, and caring commitments. Almost half of women (45%) say fear of financial instability is stopping them from starting a business, compared with 35% of men. Meanwhile, three in ten women (30%) say a lack of confidence holds them back, and one in four (24%) report that caring commitments prevent them from pursuing their entrepreneurial ambitions - more than double the rate among men (10%). The research also shows that interest in starting a business among women varies significantly by age. Younger women are the most likely to aspire to start a business, with ambition highest among those aged 18-24 (36%), before gradually declining among those aged 25-44 (28%). This drops further among women aged 45-64 (18%) and is lowest among those aged 65 and over (8%). Niamh Smyth, T.D., Minister of State for Trade Promotion, Artificial Intelligence and Digital Transformation, said, "National Women's Enterprise Day (NWED) is not just for those women who currently own or run a business, it's for all women who have a business idea and need that encouragement to take that first step. I understand the barriers faced by Women in business and regularly meet advocacy groups that share ideas on how to address some of these barriers, including issues such as underrepresentation, access to networks, access to capital, and mentorship and role models. Tackling these barriers is what makes National Women's Enterprise Day so important, and I'm proud of the role the Local Enterprise Offices have played in this. The cumulative effect of NWED has been to cultivate an entire generation of female entrepreneurs empowered with the skills, belief and support to start and grow successful businesses. Today places a spotlight on women in enterprise and boosts the visibility of women in business. This is vitally important for the next generation of female Entrepreneurs to view themselves as businesswomen" Aileen McGrath, Chair of National Women's Enterprise Day, said: "This research shows there is real ambition among Irish women to start their own business, but for too many, barriers still stand in the way. Confidence, financial concerns, and caring commitments continue to feature strongly as barriers, and that's exactly what National Women's Enterprise Day and the Local Enterprise Offices are here to help address. "Through the Local Enterprise Office network, women can access practical supports, expert mentoring, and financial advice to help turn ideas into action. Whether it's hearing from another woman who's done it, building new skills, or learning where to find funding and support, National Women's Enterprise Day shows that starting a business is possible and that no woman must do it alone. "NWED is about empowerment and reminding women that supports are there in every local authority across the country and that the Local Enterprise Offices are ready to help on the journey. The ambition is clear, our role is to help remove the barriers and give women the confidence, tools, and encouragement to take that first step." Now in its 19th year, National Women's Enterprise Day is organised by the Local Enterprise Offices with 15 events taking place across the country, bringing together some of Ireland's most inspiring and successful female entrepreneurs. Some of those involved in the events across the country this year include broadcaster and entrepreneur, Norah Casey, international human rights lawyer Joanna Frivet, author and psychologist, Dr Katriona O'Sullivan, designer Helen Steele, entrepreneur Oonagh O'Hagan, home and food influenc...

Today’s hour of power is about being “ALL IN”. All in is about being fully committed, and ON FIRE, with Passion! Commitment and Passion are the real, difference makers. Mr. Black will ask listeners to consider are the FULLY COMMITTED or whether they are just participating. We are encouraged to live an examined life, as we seek to find the purpose of our existence. God is looking for people who are fully committed! On today’s Like It Matters Radio Mr. Black will use the book by Walter A. Henrichsen titled, “Many Aspire, few attain”. It is about being ALL IN for the Kingdom and our Lord, Jesus. When you're fully committed, distractions lose their grip. Your energy isn't scattered across competing priorities—it's channeled like a laser. That kind of focus breeds excellence. “All in” people don’t quit when it gets hard. They adapt, learn, and push through. Commitment creates emotional stamina, which is often the real currency of success. Join Mr. Black as he takes listeners on a journey of introspection and hope as he challenges them to BE ALL IN!

Wall Street Journal,  CNN, Fortune, Barrons, HGTV  Frank McKinney is a true modern-day Renaissance man who has pushed the limits of success in his every endeavor. His early years were not very promising: upon attending his 4th high school in 4 years (he was asked to leave the first 3), and seven stints in juvenile detention, he earned his high school diploma with a 1.8 GPA. With $50 in his pocket and without the benefit of further education, he left his native Indiana for Florida in search of his life's highest calling. Today, Frank's life is a testament to the power of aspiration to create a completely new reality. As a real estate artist he has created and sold 44 oceanfront mansions on spec, with an average price of $14 million. Frank recently announced he was un-retiring and coming back to create more real estate artistry! See two short films that were just made about Frank's exciting comeback! As a philanthro-capitalist, Frank has built 30 self-sustaining villages over the last 20 years in Haiti, providing 13,600+ children and their families with homes, schools, clinics, community centers, churches, renewable food and clean water, and means to support themselves. A best-selling author, actor, and keynote speaker, Frank has written seven books in six genres, with the title, premise and cover for his 8th book in his 7th genre being revealed at an exciting stunt Frank will perform on Friday the 13th of January, 2023! Frank has starred in four movies, and keynoted before audiences of ten to ten thousand around the world. Physically, Frank has pushed the limit of his body by racing in the Badwater 135-mile Ultramarathon 12x in the scorching summer in Death Valley, California, a race referred to by National Geographic as “the world's toughest footrace.” As with all of his books, Frank wrote his latest bestseller Aspire! in his Delray Beach, Florida, oceanfront treehouse office that has spectacular views and includes a bamboo desk, shower, bathroom, sink, air-conditioning, hardwood floors, cedar walls, a loft with a king size bed, and a suspension bridge to the master bedroom in the main house—that's Frank's commute to and from work! Today Frank and Nilsa, his wife of 32 years, split their time between Delray Beach and their “glass cottage” in the mountains of Canton, North Carolina. They enjoy visiting their 24 year-old daughter, Laura, in New York City, where she started and runs StrataBrand, a brand strategy firm. © 2025 All Rights Reserved © 2025 Building Abundant Success!!

When Camryn's fearless 4-year-old suddenly became anxious, her gut said something deeper was wrong. Multiple “all clear” evaluations followed—until a post-virus crash at age 6 that led to a diagnosis under the PANS/PANDAS umbrella (autoimmune encephalitis). Camryn shares how a steadfast pediatrician, early referrals, and balancing clinical guidance with peer support helped her daughter reclaim everyday life—right down to summer swim league. She also opens up about protecting her child's privacy, supporting siblings, starting trauma therapy, and building margin for joy. This is a masterclass in parental advocacy, nervous-system care, and creating a trusted circle around your child.

You might think, "Where do we go from here, where we are now, to there, somewhere near there?" Of course, we hold these subject matters high above our heads. We aspire, after first trying to deserve. This is the instruction Srila Prabhupada gave in Los Angeles. I remember 1976: "First deserve, then desire, never aspire." What does that mean? "First deserve," engage in Krishna's service, capture the attention of Krishna, capture the attention of Srimati Radharani, and then you can desire. Yes, "Let me serve them for their pleasure." But "never aspire." What does he mean, "never aspire?" "First deserve, then desire, never aspire." He explained, from your low position—he was quite graphic—"From your monkey position, don't jump to the top of the tree." First deserve, and then develop some genuine spiritual desire. But never, from your position on the ground, aspire that you want to jump to the top of the tree. So I wanted to share with you some realizations I've had about the mysticism, the Gauranga mysticism behind ISV.
