JOB TITLE: Founder of GoOrganic

Meenaxy is a plant based eater, avid reader of holistic & self-improvement books and a mum of 2 teenagers. She met her husband and married him in 2009 and had her two lovely boys soon after. After being a stay at home mum for a while, she wanted to start working again, but without leaving her boys and so her husband convinced her to start GoOrganic. It started as just a hobby and from there it only grew and grew. Today the business is over 10 years old and GoOrganic is now a plant based Detox Meal company, specialising in Weight loss Resets, Liver and Gut Cleanses, Sugar Detoxes, Curing Constipation, juice Detoxing and many more resets.

Let's discover a day in her world:

8AM: I start my day early. Really early. I do my reading in the morning, I do my prayers, drop kids to school and at 7.30am i'm at office. From 7.30- 8 AM I will read some kind of self help literature mostly on mind control. From 8 AM to 9 AM, i'm educating myself with more knowledge of Detoxing and Plant based food. I make a list of all the different literature that I need to read from experts across the globe and make detailed notes on them.

10AM: Its quite busy at the office now. I'm thinking of strategies on how and what can be done. This involves on multiple aspects right from marketing, growing the sales, how to grow the business and how to increase the profitability. 

12NOON: This is the time for team meetings. Each day, we have meetings with Marketing, Sales, Operations and Accounts. This is to streamline the processes and ensure that all is running smoothly. Any issues that we are facing from the client's side or any issues operationally, we all solve them together. Considering we are in the food business, there are always many challenges.

2PM: By this time, I will have a check on all my "To do" list to check my progress. If not complete i'll mark it for the next day or finish off with some urgent tasks that need to be done. Post that, I go to pick the boys up from school and then we have lunch together. 

4PM: Lunch is usually until 4.30 PM and after that it's more of mommy duty asking the boys to study and checking their to do tasks from school. Once they settle down, I am back on my phone to check any additional messages that I need to see and answer and I finally wind up at 6 PM. I make a list of all the to do lists for the next day, send the kids to some extra curricular classes and my work day is done by 6 PM.

6PM: My phone is on silent mode and I switch off completely from work. I take my evening bath, evening prayers and change into pyjamas and I go back to either reading some help spiritual book or listening to some self help literature. Once again on mind control. 

8PM: The kids are home and they do dinner. I am still in my own space reading and at 8.30 PM, I tell them to wind up, take a bath and go off to sleep at 9 PM. I also sleep at 9 PM. 

10PM: Snoring away to glory.
