HEALING | EMBODIMENT | ENTREPRENEURSHIP | SPIRITUALITY
The Right Support
I think where we go wrong is thinking that a good strategy will bail us out of our indecision around our work.
It won’t.
In fact, strategy (or the lack there of) can often be what perpetuates the overwhelm we feel.
Community as Healer
As creative entrepreneurs, we often grapple with a whirlwind of questions:
- What do I offer that truly matters?
- Who will resonate with what I do?
- Am I good enough to deliver this work?
- Will people choose to invest?
It’s all too easy to blur the lines between who you are and what you do, but here’s the truth: You are not your work. Your work is a vehicle for your purpose, but it is not your identity.
The Turning Point
Eight years ago, I faced a pivotal turning point in my life and career.
Despite doing what I loved for a living, I worked often with almost no time off which caused me to burn out on the work I loved to do.
I knew my passion was to be of service, to truly effect influential change in the lives of my clients, and I was working with clients I loved, but I still felt stretched across different business models that were not enabling me to truly thrive.
I was exhausted.
