It was about two years ago that I took a step back from a whole lot of everything.
Small-biz-wise, that meant stepping away from markets.
The cost was getting harder to justify, and too often I was walking away having spent more than I made. So I made a decision that felt a little scary at the time…
I let it all go.
The cutesy carousel displays? Gone.
The playful tabletop displays? Gone.
The “maybe, if I ever…” stuff I was holding onto? Gone.
I didn’t need any of it anymore. And honestly, letting it go felt like letting go of the version of me who was constantly waiting for maybe someday.
I just wanted to make things because I loved making them.
And somewhere along the way, I started finding my way back to myself, too.
Dolly said, “Find out who you are and do it on purpose.”
So… here I am.
Almost two years later, I’m taking another little leap.
I don’t have it all figured out.
I don’t have the old setup.
I don’t even know exactly what this next chapter looks like yet.
But I’m here.
I’m making.
I’m showing up.
And I’m doing it on purpose. 🖤❤️
Piggy Smalls, you’re up. 🐷
