Double tap if you agree being busy IS NOT a badge of honor✨ I’ve felt consumed with the endless scrolling lately. I’ve attributed it to research for the business or trying to find joy in the creative. But instead of finding joy, I’m finding myself feeling like I’m not doing enough. I fear I’m going to miss something or constantly feel in a state of I need to be MORE. This leads to a stacked calendar, to-do lists that never end and never get completed, ideas, and projects — the list literally goes on. That’s when feelings of failure, overwhelm, and imposter syndrome kicks in, and I’ve had enough because I. AM. ENOUGH. ❤️ So today, I’m challenging myself to stop the comparison game and say goodbye to the FOMO. I’m putting boundaries in place so I can fall back in love with what social media was intended to do— bring people together. I’m intentionally inviting myself to log-off, sit on my couch, take a hot bath, and rest…no matter how uncomfortable that may be for me 😂 I was reminded recently that rest takes work. In a world where busy seems to be a badge of honor, I’m inviting all of you to join me ❤️ Maybe it’s taking your coffee in bed, meditating a little longer, unfollowing accounts that don’t bring you joy or logging out of anything that pulls you from being present. Maybe it’s putting together a puzzle with your kids, going for a long walk outside, or picking up a book from the library. If you’re like me, rest doesn’t come easy. It requires a lot of work and encouragement from my loved ones. I’m going to be logging off for a few days to commit to this challenge. Don’t worry, I will be back but we just may be a little quieter around here for the moment. This doesn’t mean our stores aren’t open or we aren’t shipping, it just means this mama needs a break 😘 Comment below if you’re up for a little R&R with me or if you’ve been feeling the same way as me 💓
