The last 12 months have been a grind.
I was posting less, overthinking every piece of content, and feeling like my priorities were all over the place.
Then, about a month ago, I decided something had to change.
I didn’t burn everything down or completely reinvent my strategy.
Instead, I made a handful of small but intentional shifts to my mindset, business, and lifestyle, including he way I work, create, and structure my days.
The result?
I’m posting more content than I have in months, my physical product business is gaining momentum again, and I finally feel excited to sit down and work each day.
It wasn’t about hustling harder… it was about working differently.
And honestly, I wish I’d made these shifts sooner.
If you’ve been feeling stuck, overworked, or just uninspired, maybe this will spark some ideas for you too!
