Everything is “figureoutable”

I saw this quote scrolling through Pinterest the other day and it seems silly, but it’s true 🤷🏻‍♀️

Lately I’ve been trying to slow down and look at each new situation or roadblock in my biz from a new perspective. It’s not always as scary as I make it out to be in my head.

It’s been a process of learning how to trust myself - knowing that I’m capable enough to find solutions to the issues that inevitably pop up - big or small, business related or not.

And if I’m stuck - remembering that I have an awesome community around me to help me work through the tough stuff 🤍

Do you feel like you have to be going the same pace as everyone else?

We consume soooo much content in this social media world - and so INEVITABLY we compare our journeys to everyone else’s.

But hey! All you need to do is find out what pace works best for youuuu.

This could be in regards to how often you can post on social media, how many clients you feel like you can take on at a time, how many tasks you can realistically get done in a day.

Just because the people you look up to are taking on a million projects in a month AND are posting content 5 days per week - does not mean that you have to scramble to keep up.

Find your own flowwww. If you’ve started this entrepreneurial journey and have realized that you need to slow it down and find more sustainable systems for yourself, then do it.

You’re not failing. You’re finding what works best for you and your life. And if you feel like you need an extra hand so that you’re able to find that flow - head over to my DMs. I would love to help you out.

Who here feels like everything about their business needs to be perfect? Everyone? Yeah me too.

I honestly procrastinated way too long when I was working on launching my business. I felt like everything needed to be juuusssttt right in order for me to jump into the game with a bold presence. My color palette, my content style, etc all needed to be pristine.

And don't get me wrong! Having a plan is essential. It's going to set you up for longterm success. But there's a difference between having a solid plan and using that as an excuse to not get started.

It's okay to show up imperfectly. Because your business is destined to grow and change, just as you are destined to grow and change. And I mean - are you kidding? It's an accomplishment that you've even started your own business or freelancing endeavor! Certainly not everyone can say that.

However, I think creatives especially tend to fall into the trap of perfectionism. That's normal! There's a tonnn of content out there and you want to make sure that you're standing out. But it's good to remember that you can show up imperfectly and still create a bold presence for yourself and your business. We're all growing and learning.

You don't need to have "all your ducks in a row". So creatives - can you relate to this?

Comment below how you're combating the pressure of perfectionism!
