EP35 - Veronique Lutchmaya - Starting a Business over 50

In today’s episode, I chat to Véronique - Founder and Director of Unique Tenants Consult. Hear what inspired her to start a business over 50, the legacy she wants to leave, and what guides her every day to enrich the lives of tenants.

With a bachelor’s degree, and an advocate for lifelong learning, Véronique knew she had to educate herself if she was going to educate others, hear how she went about that.  Sharing what she has found most daunting, and how she found social media such a huge learning curve.

Having been a tenant who experienced rental issues herself, as well as being unemployed for five years, and experiencing ageism when trying to find employment, she felt depleted on all levels. Driven by her passion to help others, and make a difference, she’s out to educate and inform tenants of their rental rights and responsibilities and make suggestions to help them negotiate a mutual satisfactory outcome as they have sometimes been misled.

We chat about the experience age brings, and the skills we have now compared to when we were younger. Self-doubt! Imposter syndrome! Questioning why am I doing this? We must believe in ourselves and keep our eyes focused on the goal.

Véronique always thinks “How can I use what I’ve learnt today and how can I share that with my tenants and my community to enrich the lives of other people”
