To explain (I know I sound like my kids)... It all started with my chronic sleeplessness and I don't have to explain (from my previous posts) just how exhausted and exasperated I am from this life I have created. After not sleeping well for months (or is it years?) I finally had enough and started researching a solution. What came next was unexpected! I found nightwear that proclaimed to be a new line of fabric treated with negative ions to help you rest and sleep better called Goodnighties (http://www.goodnighties.com/ ). This product also claimed to control nightsweats - another bi-product of my aging body. It actually sounded like a joke... but I was desperate to try anything. kids / hubby were eating me alive and I could barely function so I bought a pair! What happened next was a pretty shocking revelation for me.... even from the first night in these pajamas- I SLEPT STRAIGHT THROUGH THE NIGHT! what a treat! more surprises continued...because I began getting my creative mo-jo back so to speak. My husband claimed it was a cure for B.W.S. (Bitch-ee Wife Syndrome) so everyone was happy! I was actually starting to feel better! I then as a sanity check bought my bff a pair because she had declared since 1984 to have not slept well from fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome- again ... she was blown away by finally being able to sleep and will now not wear anything else!
I then did something really crazy and for the first time in my career, I cold-called this U.S. manufacturer to find myself within a couple of weeks, carving out an exclusive business partnership to handle all marketing and sales for this unique product. I then became an unexpected entrepreneur! Wasn't even looking for a job.... but because I was finally passionate about something.... I knew it was time to get back in the business saddle that I had known in a previous life (before kids).
