As the sun sets on 2023, it's time to pause, reflect, and welcome the promise of a brand new year. At GoGreen Financial Services, this year has been a whirlwind of challenges, milestones, and unexpected joys. Join me as I look back at the past six months of trading, navigating the storms, and embracing the madness that defined this transformative journey.
June 6th, 2023, marked not only the inception of GoGreen Financial Services but also a special day – Francesca's birthday. Little did we know that this juncture would be the starting point of an incredible adventure. This year has been no walk in the park. From the lingering effects from the Liz Truss nightmare to the shadows of war and oil price rises and the relentless increases in swap and mortgage rates, the challenges seemed never-ending. With living costs so high it was really important to me to get mortgage costs down as much as possible for my client’s, even when deals were pulled suddenly..(thanks lenders).
Starting a business amid the chaos might be considered madness, and adding the arrival of baby Georgia to the mix could be seen as the pinnacle of adventurous decision-making (eek). Yet, in the midst of what some might call madness, I have found unparalleled joy. Georgia's arrival brought a new kind of motivation, a reminder of the beauty in taking bold steps.
To my clients – you are the heart of GoGreen Financial Services. Your trust, support, and partnership have been the driving force behind my journey, so far! In a year where uncertainty prevailed, your loyalty has been the anchor that kept me steady and sane. Thank you, sincerely, for being the foundation on which I am building my dreams.
As we step into the blank canvas of 2024, the excitement is palpable. My commitment to sustainable finance deepens, and I’m eager to embark on new initiatives. The year ahead holds promises of charity partnerships, tree-planting endeavours, and the potential growth of the GoGreen team.
The rollercoaster of 2023 has taught me resilience, the importance of embracing the unexpected, and the joy that comes from pursuing my dreams. I'm filled with gratitude for the challenges and triumphs that have shaped GoGreen Financial Services into what it is so far.
Here's to the end of a challenging yet transformative half year and the beginning of an exciting new chapter.
Wishing you all a Happy New Year filled with prosperity, joy, and green adventures!
Lots of love Sarah x
