The Hustle Culture

Want to kick hustle culture to the curb? I’ve got a few ideas.
But first show me a wave emoji if you’ve (been working non stop /been yearning for a break / need time away just for you).
We keep going because we fear we’ll lose money, or miss an opportunity or not catch that important email.
But slowness is where we _____(circle back to the non-work related things that need our attention / rest and grow / can create and tap into a space of deep happiness).
Sometimes we need to stop to go again. Agree?

My Work Is Hard

If one more person tells me: “I must feel so free owning my small business, I’m blocking them forever. #kiddingnotkidding.

“Feeling free” is the last thing I experience when ______( I’m packing shipments for FEDEX / I’m working late at night on my sales page / looking over the menu for tomorrow’s Wine Evening long after everyone is in bed etc).

I know people mean well but I feel more folks need to acknowledge the work we, small biz owners, put in.

This is true especially at the beginning of the journey, deep in the middle too where we don’t have a clear idea of——–(how our dreams will evolve / what the next step should be etc)

Because as much as I sometimes wish that the path was all mapped out clear, when I think about, it’s not. And it does not ALWAYS feel free at all.

Ok! that’s the rant I wanted to share with you. Anyone else thing entrepreneurship is freaking hard? Let me know in the comments.
