A journey of radical self love & soul nourishment!
My first business flopped around 2015/16 the time I experienced my first (complete) burnout! I had no idea what was happening back then, I just knew I was totally drained; I could hardly move, I could hardly think straight, and it was hard for me to get motivated about anything... I was a mess.
Years later (when 2020 revealed its great chaos) I found myself walking on a type rope, moving in a direction that felt questionable, fearful, and awfully too familiar. I didn't want to burn out... again! I later found myself in a cycle of coming up with great ideas, working extra hard on making a pretty package, and then getting ice cold feet when it was time to present it. I'd go strong for a little bit, then quickly get tired. Not to mention I was dealing with various draining relationships; family & personal situations, as well as a few health complications. In the mist of all of this, I decided to REbrand my current business Array of Gratitude too! I was doing it again... putting way too much on m plate.
But this time was slightly different...
Can you guess what happen???
I burnt out, but this time around I got therapy.
Getting Back To the Healing I Knew
I began to explore various kinds of therapy; a deeper, more soulful type of healing. It was a lightbulb that shinned over my head because I tapped into my intuition and was guided to look up meditation music I used when I was once a massage therapist. Things that I did in the industry started showing up n my awareness, and I could literally hear myself demanding me to start painting again! I also began to look into my books about Reiki, as I was a practitioner when I used to massage too.
With all of that happening, I felt guided to lay off the computer, from freelance graphic design work, and get back to the slow paced wellness industry. I reissued my license and started working as a Massage Therapist again. The dream of owning my business didn't die; I just started getting new ideas and seized the moment!
I was forced to focus on balancing my healing and working through my business of helping others. I used my own wellness tools I knew, but when 2020 came, I felt due for another shift. I moved 2x since returning to Massage Therapy and didnt feel stable enough to start my own massage business, plus I had bigger dreams for sharing wellness! The downside of it all, working for massage businesses don't hardly embrace wellness for their workers; the jobs I had tried us like robots. I had to be stern about my breaks and would come home too tire to cook my dinner. This was NOT what I wanted to go through. When I noticed it was hard for me to keep up with my own healing routines I knew I needed more help. Thats when I started looking for a therapist and a coach. I had no idea how I was going to afford it, but I began to look.
It took a lot of work to discover why I was constantly putting my work before my health, which I'd love to share, but I'd like to save it for another day. If you sign up to the blog, you'll get notified every time I post, along with discounts for tutorials and courses I'm putting together for entrepreneurs just like you!
I have a lot to share, teach, and ways to support you along your journey, which ever kind you are on! I've also created a process now that helps prevent women from burnout and really connect with their creative spirit, so they can tap into the flow of expansion, and shift through the layers created from corporate (aka hustle culture) step by step.
It's sooo time to burn bright... not burnout!
