A businesswoman and a proud mother-of-five who used to be homeless has opened up about her success to encourage other women like her.

40-year-old Rebecca Barr from London, England, had spent many years struggling to provide for her family as a single mom of five children.

As the entrepreneur revealed, she left her home at an early age and overcome homelessness and abuse that came at the lowest point in her life.

Despite the odds being stacked against her, Rebecca continued to fight and build her family while doing her best to provide for her kids.

After years of hardships, the woman made her expertise and passion into a full-time business as she launched a coaching company known as The Femalepreneur Coach.

Nowadays, the mother earns a six-figure salary while doing her best to help other struggling women realize that they are capable of achieving anything they want.

“Women can make their own money story and we can all become wildly wealthy on our own terms, no matter what our personal life looks like,” Rebecca says.

“My childhood was filled with grief, abuse, violence and homelessness, but I knew I was destined for more.”

She continued: “I refused to believe that was meant to be my life, so I worked really hard to turn it around.

“I haven’t had an easy ride in my adult years either and haven’t had the best luck with men. I have five wonderful children by three different fathers and there’s nothing wrong with it. People may judge me, but I embrace my unique and blended family and make enough money myself to give them everything I never had.”

Rebecca also explained that her life was a rollercoaster after the death of her Navy officer father when she was just four years old.

Following the tragedy, her mother married into an abusive relationship and Rebecca eventually left her home and became homeless. While she managed to build a million-dollar property portfolio by the age of 25, she left it all behind when her first marriage fell apart.

In the following years, she opened her first business and graduated from HR while pregnant with her second child. Unfortunately, one of her businesses, a salon, encountered problems and Rebecca was forced to learn a valuable lesson in “letting go” and “never giving up.”

One fail, however, resulted in another opportunity as the mother realized she could use her knowledge and passion to start coaching other women on business strategies.

After giving life to The Femalepreneur Coach, the mother grew her family more and became a single mother-of-five after her relationship with a different partner fell apart.

“I have had terrible relationships with men but am ever the optimist and believe I will meet the right man soon,” she says.

“Despite all I’ve been through, I’m a strong, successful woman and I love nothing more than helping others achieve limitless success too. Anything is possible with the right mindset!”
