That inspired me to start a CPR and First Aid company.  With my last name being Long, coming up with the business name \u201cLong Lasting Life\u201d was a seamless process.  Our motto is \u201cTeaching Life Long Skills to Help Save Lives\u201d.       When asked what she loves most about what she does, Jacquin says it\u2019s the opportunity to contribute to the well-being of others.  Whether working full-time at the hospital, providing cryotherapy through her business to relieve knee or back pain, or teaching lifesaving classes, she appreciates being able to make a meaningful difference in people\u2019s lives. She adds that she draws inspiration from God and the success she has experienced.  \u201cI approach my work with purpose, integrity, and a commitment to excellence, allowing faith to guide my vision and leadership in accomplishing the mission.  This foundation shapes every decision I make, strengthens my resilience in the face of challenges, and fuels a genuine passion for serving others with intention and care. Guided by faith and a mindset of continual growth, I strive each day to be a better person than I was the day before, leading with humility, compassion, and clarity so that my work reflects values greater than success alone.\u201d      As a small business owner and one who focuses on providing a specific service, Jacquin has encountered a few challenges here and there.  One in particular is Time Management.  \u201cBalancing a full-time career as an orthopedic professional while running a business, and ensuring every client receives exceptional care, has been challenging.  Providing the best service to every client remains my top priority.  Through organization, disciplined time management, and intentional planning, each client is given the dedicated attention they deserve.  As I have remained deeply rooted in the purpose behind my work, it has allowed for continued focus and clarity.  Planned self-care days have supported a healthy work\u2013life balance, prevented burnout, and helped me to sustain the highest standard of care,\u201d Jacquin says.  \u201cI\u2019m learning to delegate when I can and give myself grace.  My favorite bible verse is Psalm 46:10 \u201cBe still and know that I am God\u201d.  I am learning daily to be still and surrender control in things that I can\u2019t control so that I can fully acknowledge God\u2019s power.\u201d       The advice Jacquin offers to other aspiring entrepreneurs aligns with her faith in God and trusting His direction.  \u201cHabakkuk 2:2 says, \u201cWrite the vision, and make it plain, that he may run that readeth it\u201d.  Write the vision, trust God, stay humble, treat people right, be teachable, and run your own race.  A good leader was once a good follower, stay focused and don\u2019t panic.  Finally, network and find a mentor.\u201d   To learn more about Long Lasting Life LLC, please visit their website at  www.longlastinglyfe.com To learn more about Huami Magazine, please visit our website at www.huamimagazine.com ","author_name":"thisiswhoiam's podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/thisiswhoiam.libsyn.com\/website","html":"
