This is what my workday looks like when I don’t “have it all together.” Doing what I can, when I can, with the capacity I have. 😮💨
And honestly, this is a big part of why I chose entrepreneurship in the first place.
After my granny passed, I realized I couldn’t mentally handle the demands of a traditional 9–5 while carrying that kind of grief. I needed flexibility. I needed room to breathe. I needed to be able to structure my life and work in a way that allowed me to still function when life got heavy.
And now, after losing my father, I’m even more grateful that I established this life for myself.
Yes, being self-employed comes with its own challenges. It’s not always easy, and there are definitely days when I miss the structure and certainty that comes with a traditional job.
But I genuinely wouldn’t have it any other way.
Because life keeps moving. The world keeps spinning. Bills still come. Emails still need responses. Work still exists.
Even when grief and loss make your world feel like it has come to a complete standstill.
I’m grateful that I created a life that gives me the flexibility to function amongst all that is going on. 💕🙌🏾
