Hey there you beautiful soul!
Wishing you the happiest, most magical start to 2020!!!
I really have missed this newsletter crew! It has been six weeks since we last touched base - somehow it never ceases to amaze me how fucking fast time flies by.
I've been on a self-imposed house arrest - focused 100% on building my business.
It was productive AF, but not as I expected. I got basically nothing done that I planned to do... but everything done that I needed to :) LOL It always works out that way... I'm finally giving in and learning how to go with the flow.
:: 1000th reminder to self to take it ONE. STEP. AT. A. TIME. and build slowly, but surely and sustainably! ::
My goal was to come back to you with a fully revamped website, blog, newsletter, branding, etc... but I quickly realized I had to prioritize setting up my fundamental business systems first.
TBH I totally let the end of year hype get to me and felt like I should get shit launched for 2020 - maybe you've been feeling that same pressure - but I'm letting go of all the "shoulds" and doing what works best for my personal timeframe, and it feels so much better already.
It's 2020 - now is the time more than ever before to build and live out our best lives unapologetically!
EXPLORING THE WORLD
- I'm still living at home in the Philly suburbs (USA)! My self-imposed travel ban (AKA house arrest as coined by my sister) continues. I love exploring and have no intention of stopping permanently - but I need a continuous, stable period of time to go all-in on my business... so I'm taking it!
- In the past decade, I've explored plenty of people's backyards across 40+ countries and seven continents... now it's time to explore my own backyard! I haven't lived at home for this long since I was 17 years old (2004) so I plan to soak in all of the American history, get out into nature, and enjoy family time.
- “If I ever go looking for my heart’s desire again, I won’t look any further than my own back yard. Because if it isn’t there, I never really lost it to begin with! Is that right?” — Dorothy, The Wizard of Oz
