Some days, building your dream feels really bloody hard.
There’s a moment every business owner knows - that quiet, heavy one. When you’re staring at your laptop, watching your best friend like all your social media posts, wondering if anyone else even sees what you’re doing. Maybe you’re halfway through yet another Canva post or packing an order at midnight, and the thought creeps in: Is this actually worth it?
This week’s bonus podcast episode is a bit different. It’s a reworked version of a talk I'm giving next week at an event for small business owners but it’s also something I felt in my bones that you needed to hear. Because behind the branding, the business plans and the daily hustle…we’re real women with real lives. Kids who need tea. Parents who need care. Bodies that ache. Minds that worry. And still, we show up.
We show up because we believe - deep down - that our creativity matters. That our dream deserves a place in the world. That we are allowed to want more.
This week’s episode is your reminder that you're not behind. You're not failing. You're building something brave in the middle of everything else.
