So for me, and for some other folks I have talked to, this summer has felt kinda odd.......not the norm......many people chalking it up to the weather.....lots of rain and heavy humidity....not everybody's favorite vibe.....the highlight for me for sure has been our vacation....but the rest has sort of been a blur.....Vacation Bible Camp.....Gabe wanted to do summer school a couple of weeks.....making appointments for us to catch up on, handling medical paperwork and deductibles.......but the truth is I have been feeling kinda stuck this summer....procrastination taking hold on some of what I want to accomplish.....and analysis paralysis of those goals.....the planetary juju feeling heavier....a shift is coming this month that may help give me the boost I seek.....I have goals and things I want/need to accomplish and sometimes the grind to get there, and the consistency that is needed, is challenging.....I trust that my business will someday be where I want it to....I truly do with all of my heart.....I have all the pieces that can make it successful, as well as the drive and passion for it all, it is just taking more time than I would like sometimes......but I also know there is much more I can do in terms of advertising, and getting myself out there more.....it is a learning curve for sure:) So tonight I am hopeful that it is a piece to move forward....I am partnering with my friend who will be doing some of my branding also......and we are hosting a luxury picnic.....I am hoping the weather cooperates.....and it is a smaller event to get myself out there some alongside some other small business owners, while connecting and helping women....which truly is my goal each day......and putting myself in places to do that is important.....so I am working on pushing past the energy that is making me feel kinda stuck, and putting action in motion......breaking down the steps needed to do that......yesterday we got to see Kendall and Aubrey at camp.....it was Aubrey's birthday, that is Madeline's best friend.....and we surprised her, the reunion was the sweetest, and we are all so close.....and seeing them feels like home somehow......such a cozy and beautiful vibe.....it is so crazy the energy the 5 of us share......just kindred spirits through and through....and I have missed them so much this summer......I am looking forward to being back in each other's day to day in the fall......and my deep friendship with Kendall was borne out of my desire and willingness to help women.....and our connection is fierce.....women need women to help them....support them, and lift them up when life comes to find them....and there is a group of us in this area that feel really strongly about that, and passionate about that mission.....and we are forever brainstorming ways to make that happen......so yea for me I have been acknowledging my lower motivation vibes the last couple of weeks....honoring that vibe too....allowing for it.....but it is time to start making some moves toward what I have planned and take some leaps in that direction.......and the last couple of days I have been feeling some more creative energy finding me to help me do that......I trust that tonight will attract who is meant to come....it always does:) I am always keeping my eyes peeled for doors and windows meant for me.....this felt like one.....Still working on how I want my branding shoot to go....where to do it....how to convey in photographs who I am....and what that looks like?? But I am spending time researching that some too......working on my retreat....put a survey out there and am getting feedback and need to craft that......and I am thinking now a fall series makes sense....so have plans for that too......summer can be an odd time....it is such a gift each year to me, and the time it gives me with my kids, but it can also lend itself to putting stuff off for another day, at least for me.....because it feels as if there is so much time.....so I am working through the energy that has been around.....giving myself grace.....and knowing that everything is unfolding in its perfect time:)
