Eva’s journey began when she moved to San Antonio in 2004 after getting married. By 2008, she ventured into the field of neurofeedback, acquiring her equipment and starting her business with a focus on treating children with autism through medication-free methods. “I started my business with great acceptance from the community, especially for treatments in children with autism. The changes are significant and medication-free,” Eva shared.
Despite her promising start, life threw numerous challenges at Eva. A divorce, followed by a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis after contracting COVID-19 in 2019, meant she had to pause and restructure her business several times. “I could never expand the way I wanted because I had so many things to resolve. But through therapy and determination, I rehabilitated quite well,” Eva explained.
However, Eva never stopped working. She continued to push forward, motivated by the significant improvements she saw in her clients’ lives. “I never thought of quitting. The commitment to my clients was always there. If you stop, the treatment stops. I couldn’t let that happen,” Eva emphasized.
In 2023, Eva’s perseverance paid off when she received support from LiftFund. “LiftFund believed in me and provided financial assistance that allowed me to restart and properly organize my business again. This support came at a time when I needed it the most,” Eva recounted.
The impact of LiftFund’s support was profound. “With the help of LiftFund, I began to see light at the end of the tunnel. They provided an opportunity that was denied by many banks. It gave me the strength to move forward and believe in my dreams again,” Eva said.
Today, Eva’s business, Unlimited Minds LLC, is growing. She has started to form a team and aims to expand her services to a broader community, including English-speaking clients. Her vision is to establish a clinic offering various neurofeedback therapies. “My goal is to have a clinic with multiple treatment rooms, providing more alternatives for therapy,” Eva explained.
Eva’s inspiration comes from her family, particularly her son, who has excelled academically and is now receiving scholarship offers from prestigious universities. “My son is my biggest inspiration. Despite all the challenges, he has remained focused on his goals, and that motivates me to keep pushing forward,” Eva shared.
For aspiring entrepreneurs, Eva offers this advice: “Positive thoughts lead to positive outcomes. Believe in yourself, and you can achieve your dreams. Institutions like LiftFund exist to help you see the light at the end of the tunnel and reach your goals much faster.”
Eva’s story is a testament to resilience, determination, and the significant impact that supportive institutions like LiftFund can have on small businesses. Her journey continues to inspire others, showing that with the right support and mindset, overcoming challenges and achieving success is possible.
