For a long time I felt like I was trying to do “all the things” and my business required 45+ hours a week and lots of hustling to make it work. The truth is, I was spreading myself thin and diluting my efforts across too many things. To boil it down, I was doing too many things and none of it all that well. To regain my sanity and see sustainable business growth, I had to do less – better.
You ever feel like you’re too busy to slow down? I feel like that a lot. Like earlier this year when I was filling every spare moment in my calendar with something “important.” Funny thing about claiming busyness as an entrepreneur. We get to wear it as a badge of honor.

This time of year is always sacred to me. It’s an invitation to slow down and spend a little more time with those I care deeply about. But this year, I’m navigating a bit of a balancing act.
