#50 From Single Mum to CEO with Cheryl Sharp
What does it really take to rebuild your life when you’ve lost everything?
This week I’m joined by the incredible Cheryl Sharp, who shares her raw and inspiring story of leaving an abusive marriage with no money, no support, and two young sons to care for, to building a thriving business, stepping into her power as a leader, and creating a new life on her terms.
We talk about the courage it takes to start again, the messy middle of self-doubt and depression, and the transformation that comes when you finally believe in yourself. Cheryl also opens up about her passion for helping other survivors through mentoring, financial independence, and her mission to create safer workplaces with her domestic abuse policy.
If you’ve ever doubted yourself, played small, or wondered if you’re really capable of more, Cheryl’s story will show you just how much is possible.
Listen in and be inspired to take your own courageous next step.
Cheryl Sharp is a domestic abuse advocate, speaker, and award-winning accountant who empowers women to achieve financial independence and build a life they love. After escaping an abusive marriage with no income, savings, or support, she founded Pink Pig Financials in 2014 to create financial security while being present for her two young sons.
Having battled low self-worth, depression, and anxiety, working with a coach became her turning point. Now, she shares her story to raise awareness of domestic abuse and inspire others to take control of their future.
Through mentoring, Cheryl walks alongside women, helping them achieve success on their terms. As an accountant, she makes finance less daunting, ensuring women don’t leave money matters at the bottom of their to-do lists. In 2024, she fulfilled a childhood dream of owning a horse, adding new equestrian goals to her ever-growing list of ambitious achievements.

Hey, I’m Shelley Bosworth, International Business and Mindset Coach, keynote speaker and founder of The She Is Courageous Collective
Beginning my career in the heart of the UK’s corporate world, I spent 25 years climbing the ranks across retail and hospitality, from Harrods to Starbucks to Haven Caravan Parks. Along the way i found a natural ability to bridge the gap between strategy and people, leading large teams through transformation and growth.
In late 2019 after experiencing significant personal loss, I left the corporate world to launch my coaching business, going all in on a vision to empower others, just as the world began facing an unprecedented global pandemic. Since then I’ve worked with businesses and individuals worldwide, empowering hundreds to break through self-doubt, overcome imposter syndrome, and take bold courageous action toward their goals.
Now living in Dubai, fulfilling a lifelong ambition to live and work internationally I like to think I inspire others to take courageous action and embrace the mindset shifts that make success possible.
I’m high energy, no nonsense but truly authentic and fundamentally believe life is too short not to go for what you want
My own story is proof of that and I can’t wait to help you write yours.
