I started the following year full of ambition, motivation and anticipation. I vision-boarded the heck out of all of my dreams for that year: travelling to dream destinations, more creativity and color, growing in my faith, crushing it at work, marrying the love of my life… You seriously could not bottle my excitement.

But, 2019 was a wasteland.

With this being my new norm and the intrigue of solving this puzzle, I sat down with my planner, in the middle of my living room, and thought through exactly how I could make this transition smooth and fun for myself. How was I going to organize my time and schedule to allow me to get work done well, be intentional with the increased time at home, and create a rhythm that felt doable and enjoyable.

Here’s what I came up with:

“I was simply trying to delete a different account (deleting an Instagram account is way harder than you would think) and was horrified to see that account was still there but my business page was gone. I oddly felt like I had gotten laid off and lost everything – thousands of followers, content, and connections with other vendors in my field.”

If you have been keeping up with us on our emails and social media, you’ll know that March is mud month. Mud month because it’s not quite spring, but it’s not quite winter anymore; it’s a blend of rainy snowy-ness and semi sunshine, aka mud. Beyond the physical nature of this month, it’s also a month where we’re losing some of the beginning-of-the-year drive and motivation and looking for some change.
