🎢 August has been a rollercoaster month! Full of ups, downs, and plenty of lessons learnt along the way!
Here’s a little honesty from behind the scenes of running a business and being a mom. 💬
💬 Clients change like SEASONS
Some months are smooth sailing. Others, one client signs on and another leaves, within minutes, all in the same day. That’s small business life..
💬 Some weeks are calm, others are CHAOTIC
The past two weeks? Pure chaos. Chalk and cheese compared to quieter ones.
💬 Family time > Stress
That mom guilt hits differently when you can’t play cars on the floor because an urgent email needs your attention. When you can hardly read clearly because you've been feeling like you've solo parented for the whole of July. Balance isn’t always easy..
💬 Burnout is REAL
Solo parenting + work = I bit off more than I could chew this month (and last).
Lesson learnt.
💬 Quiet months happen, but new doors open
Every cancellation has been followed by new opportunities. Faith keeps me moving forward.
💬 Peace of mind > Money
Financial security matters, but not at the cost of happiness or one's health.
💬 Honesty matters
I don’t like feeling like I'm letting clients or my family down, but being human means owning up when I’ve taken on too much and can't work to my full standards.
💬 Growth comes with a price
Growth means more work, more responsibility, less family time, and sometimes late nights, it also means progress.
✨ This season taught me so much about myself! As a mom, wife, and business owner!
Sharing this because I know I can't be the only one feeling these feels.. what was relatable to you?
So ready for the new month, September, with new boundaries in place, changes to come and space for growth.
