Self Care
Let go of the mental clutter.
While some concerns are worthy of your full attention, others can feel like useless clutter.
Are myfriends mad at me?
Am Imaking the right choice?
Did I justlose a follower on social media?
Trying to intervene or control their choices often does more harm than good for them and for me.
Letting go of this responsibility, which was never mine to carry, has been freeing.
If other people want to make me the villain in their story, so be it.
All I can control is being the heroine of mine.
Im joking but Im not joking.
I dont have that hour and a half every two weeks to go get a nicenegative space manicure.
Did they see my email?
Did they like my idea?
I’d keep checking in like a shopaholic checking for tracking updates.
Sometimes it was effective, but it was stressful.
Now, Im no longer tethering myself to the final outcome.
Instead, Im focusing on finding the balance between being a mother and growing my business.
Letting them down as a mother is one of the choices Im making.
