Wanna Quit Your Business? I Get It 🙋🏻‍♀️

This isn’t talked about enough. 

I want to quit my business ALL THE TIME. 

I’m not exaggerating one bit. 

I cry, in the trees, by myself, saying “please, I hate this”.

I’ve been running my own business for nearly 7 years and it’s often really really really hard.

I’ve been to the depths of hell when it comes to my mental health. 

I’ve been in pits of despair, begging God to relieve me of the heavy burden I feel, often. 

I can’t be the only one that experiences this?

Of course not, I have entrepreneurial friends I talk about this with all the time. 

Whether it’s rejigging offers, challenging clients, roadblocks, mindset blocks, fear, trauma responses - you name it, we talk about it.

So, what do I do about it? 

I listen. 

I tune into the version of me that feels this way. 

It’s usually the little girl in me, my inner child, that is sick to death of ‘being an adult’ and wants to play and explore and feel free. 

My default is to not listen to her because she is always right. 

When I choose to be light, life and business feels… lighter. 

When I choose to be burdened, life and business feels… like a burden. 

It is so normal to…

1. want to quit your business, all the time

2. to think ‘this will be the last launch, then I will quit’ 

3. to believe you’re defeated. 

The reality is… you’re not. 

You are not your thoughts and your inner child really does require nurturing, play, joy, fun, connection, rest and extra special care. 

You have a business so you don’t have to grind and operate from obligation, remember that when you’re going through a tough “I wanna quit period”.

When you play, rest, rejoice, indulge and slow down… you want to work in ways that feel creative, innovative and inspiring. 

The reality is, you’ve let the strict adult rule the roost and the little girl in you is demanding joy. 

It’s safe to listen to her. 

She will be kind to you if you tend to her.

Happy tending 💖

Do your best, surrender, let go and do your best once more.
