About me
Hi, I am Line Andrea!
I am an entrepreneur, hairsalon owner, self development "obsessed" hypnotherapist from Norway. (and a proud, single mother)
A few months after a breakup after a 10 year long relationship, a newly purchased house (under renovation) and with a 2.5-year-old in my arms i started my first businesse! I had nothing to loose, and jumped in. 11 years after, it all has developed in a way i never, ever could have imagined.
In a different way, where i have designed the life i want to live right now. With several incomes, different workdays outside of the nine to five box and with other exiting goals for the future.
We all can change our life in a split second, but we need to have a goal. We need to have a big enough "Why" we want this. And we need to believe in our self! The salon is a part of me, and i dont want to hire other stylists. Its just me. But, i rent out rooms in the clinic, to other self emplyed entrepreneurs, even a basement to yoga teachers. We have a nice environment there. .And sometimes i close the salon, and travel to work offshore for a couple of weeks, or make space to deep dive into other projects like this store, "line of coaching" youtube and writing.
And of course, living the life. As a mom, with family, hobbies, pilates and dancing.
A little storytime
I had gotten a manager position in a salon, which I had dreamed of for a long time. But after a while, i was burning the candle at both ends. I got sick a lot, my child was only 1, 5 year and ieventually got a burnout. I had to go on sick leave, and after months on sick leave, i desided to quit, what i thougt was my dream job, to slow down for a while.
It took some time to heal, but I gradually regained my energy along with my ambitions. And that’s when my salon dream came to life.
"So i opened my first businesse a few months after the breakup with my sons dad, and even tho it was tough, i would have opened a businesse again."
Life happens, but you have to find your inner strength and take one step at a time. Not just for yourself, but also for (in my case) my child. Sometimes we need a bigger "why". A reason we NEED to do something and WANT to reach our goal.
I opened my salon, but had to change the location several times the first two years when i opened in the city. But ten the perfect location apperead, and it developed into doing something i never had planned for. Renting out rooms and space to females that want to have their own, independent businesse. (massage, chiropractors, yoga, nails, skincare, lashes, beauty)
Everything was working out better and better, but i was curious towards testing out working in the north sea, in service and first aid. So i spend the summer taking the courses i needed, because i felt it was right to do this. In case anything happened. (was my thought)
Six years later, corona happened. My business was suddenly closed. The crisis turned into an opportunity when, the day after lockdown, I got a call from a temporary staffing company offshore and got the chance to work in the North Sea. 24 Hours after the call, i was on the airplane and then the helicopter towards new experiences.
The combination of offshore work and my own business worked out so well, and opened up some space for personal time, personal development, learning new skills and to breath!
I followed up with certification as a hypnotherapist & life coach and to learn more of body language and chinese face reading.
I decided to use my experiences and learnings to help and motivate, so then "line of coaching# had to happen. I also created a youtube channel (Mindset by Line Andrea) where i can post hypnosis, meditations and motivational videos that is totally free!
