Hi lovelies, long time no see. I feel like I haven’t spoken to you guys directly in quite a while so I thought I’d take this time to explain my inactivity and get ‘real’ for a second.
I’ve previously been avoiding talking about myself and my own struggles on my business account as I’ve convinced myself that it is completely unrelated, however after some thought I believe it’s actually very important to talk about your own struggles in regards to work, especially as someone who works primarily on social media.
We all know social media is performative - a photo only representing a small fraction of the full story and so often, myself included, we are inclined to compare ourselves to other people. As a crystal business and spiritualist, I think it’s so important to talk about the bad as well as the good and have it serve as a reminder that life works in mysterious and unpredictable ways.
The start of this year for me has felt like absolute shambles - not that anything in particular has gone horribly wrong, but nothing feels quite right. Everything at the moment has felt super overwhelming and as a result I have hit a wall and lost motivation to work both on myself and my business. My business is my dream, my passion and it feels so gut wrenching having no drive to work on something I once couldn’t get enough of. As previously mentioned, I wholeheartedly believe I have hit a wall as a result of comparing myself to other business owners as well as the past versions of my own business.
With that being said, id like to remind everyone and myself that nothing is going to be smooth sailing and just because you hit a bump in the road, doesn’t mean the road won’t return to a steady pace after continuing with the drive. I want to normalise the struggle and and remind everyone to carry on with your dreams and passions - never give up, no matter how bumpy the road gets. After a long break away, I’m finally ready to return to work and continue to improve myself and my business so I hope you guys are prepared to be seeing more of me 😂
Thank you to everyone who took the time to read this post, I know it’s quite a hefty paragraph. Love, light and blessings to all ❤️🌙
