I have been reflecting a lot on this last year and how I took a big leap of faith with starting my business. I did it because I knew I wanted more for Hunter and I.
I worked full time (more than full time hours) alongside starting this journey because I BELIEVED. I had a vision for Hunter and I... and I knew it was up to me. Did I sacrifice things? Yes. Has it been worth it? HECK YES.
I gave up a promising career - my dream job actually, because my business took off and I LOVE what I do. Looking back at a year ago right now, I definitely wouldn’t have pictured my life to be where it is now. I get to be with my son more. I get to give him the life I always wanted. I have flexibility and freedom now... something I always wanted but didn’t know how I would achieve.
I am so freaking grateful. I can’t even describe it. I’m so grateful for every single one of you who have followed my journey, who have sent me encouraging messages, who have shared their stories with me, who have trusted me with helping them, and for just being here.
I’m pushing for the last promotion I will ever push for with my company - the biggest one yet. The top 1% of my company - National Vice President. This is a team effort and something I didn’t do alone. My team is AMAZING and I’m so proud of them!!! This weekend we are closing it out. We still have ground to cover and are going to be working hard to finish it... and this literally makes me tear up writing this.
To anyone who has ever doubted themselves - THIS IS POSSIBLE.
To anyone who is struggling with mental health and addiction - RECOVERY IS POSSIBLE and you are capable of great things!!! There is life beyond your struggles. I promise. Don’t ever give up.
To any single parent who has cried themselves to sleep wondering how they would make ends meet and provide for their babies - YOU ARE STRONGER THAN YOU KNOW. I see you.
To any person who has struggled to love and value themselves - YOU ARE ENOUGH. YOU ARE WORTHY.
