I haven’t been able to find my rhythm for over a year. My choice, my pain ❤️🩹 the pain I’m willing to face and work through.
The past year brought life-changing decisions..I ended a relationship while building my first business at the same time. Both heavy, both hard. It felt like starting over in unfamiliar territory constantly moving, trying to rebuild a routine that didn’t exist yet.
A year later, I can say it’s been everything at once 🌩️ tears, joy, confusion, pride. Growth rarely looks clean. It’s messy. And I signed up for all of it. Somewhere in that process, though, I forgot about myself.
I got sick more times than I can count. My mind stayed full of timelines, expectations, and the pressure to do my best and make everyone happy. I kept pushing, thinking that’s what strength looks like 🫠 until my body pushed back. Illness, anxiety, exhaustion in waves. And honestly, it scared me.
It taught me something important tho.. stress without pause is not sustainable. Hard work is not the problem..neglect is!
I did my best in my first year, and I’m proud of that. No book or video can shortcut this part. Time is the real teacher. Time to fail, adjust, and find my flow.
What I want is to build a business that’s healthy 🤎 not just financially, but humanly. Yes, numbers matter. They keep the lights on. But if I lose myself in the process, the success means nothing.
I pushed aside my non-negotiables like rest, movement for myself, eating well, taking breaks. Not because I don’t care but because I care so much that I forgot I’m part of the equation too. So this year, I’m choosing to move smarter and with more awareness.
One of my goals this year is taking a real break from social media. Almost six years without stepping away is wild. I need space to reset so I can come back clearer.
The business is still running. The dream is still alive. And I’m deeply grateful. Thank you for supporting me, believing in me, and giving me room to grow. Every person who’s part of this journey means more than you know. I love you all 🙏🏻
