Veronica Reid Embraces Her Pivotal Moment

Quitting your job to walk in your purpose and live your dreams can be scary.

There is anxiety in wondering how you will support yourself and your family. Or you may not be certain if your dream career will really sustain you mentally!

Veronica Reid, founder and owner of Reach Scholars Tutoring, LLC and Natural 4U did not allow these anxieties to keep her from leaving her job in the education field and branching out into the entrepreneurial life.

When Veronica realized that she no longer found joy in going to work, and even felt dread at the thought of returning to work at the end of a break, she knew she had to answer the call.

After leaving her full-time job, Veronica felt impelled to share with others in the community her story, and give them the blueprint on how to avoid some challenges she experienced. In 2021, Veronica published her first book, How To Fire Your 9-5, 10 Steps to break free and work on your own terms!
