I’m struggling. There are points in building a business online or offline when times are just hard. It could be that the money isn’t flowing in and you’re freaking out. Maybe your message or product isn’t resonating with your audience.

Strangely, that’s not what’s happening for me.

The busiest 3 weeks of my entire year coincided with the completion of one HUGE consulting project that I’ve worked on since June and 3 conferences that I care about and am a member of each community.

Balls were dropped. Not those balls, stop laughing.

Then, there’s the US Election.

We’re literally fighting Fascism. Fascism! WTF.

I’m really tired and there’s a point where showing up for others is difficult to do when it’s hard to show up for yourself.

Please give the people in your life some grace. Give yourself some grace and be kind to yourself.

At least the weather is finally starting to cool down. I’m wearing a puffy today.

Maybe I’ll take a nap?

If you’re a friend of mine reading this and have been frustrated with me, I’m sorry for not being as present as I typically would be.

If you’re a community member who wants more from me, I’m giving myself permission to pause for the next couple of weeks.

See you on the flip side,

Michelle
