#sundayvibes ⠀⠀ ✨Confession: for YEARS I pretty much never treated myself to anything! ✨When I started my solo-preneur venture, I was hellbent on simply surviving and keeping my business going. ✨Even as I started learning about wealth consciousness and abundance mindset, I for some reason found it easier to invest into my brand than to invest in myself. ✨I could somehow easily justify splurging on craft supplies, but I almost never allowed that extra couple of dollars to go towards simply enjoying myself, separate from my business. ✨It was almost like I had a belief system that I didn’t deserve to enjoy an abundant lifestyle until my business had achieved some specific level of success... but that “specific level of success” was vague and undefined, so it could have gone on that way indefinitely! ✨What’s been really groundbreaking for me in the past couple of years has been realizing that pursuing my “dream career” would be meaningless if I couldn’t have that go hand in hand with living my dream LIFESTYLE! ✨I think it’s been a combination of simply getting more stable/organized with my money, getting connected with mentors/peers who put a lot of emphasis on living an abundant lifestyle, and being inspired by a new romantic partnership with a successful creative entrepreneur with expensive taste... but I’ve really had to take a serious look at my life and put myself in check! ✨I looked around and realized that I was giving my business the very best I could afford, meanwhile giving myself the BARE MINIMUM that I could afford! How ass-backwards is that??? ✨I mean, the whole point of creating my own career was to live a BETTER and more fulfilling life, right? I mean DUH! But I had managed to loose sight of that in my intense determination to grow my business. ✨Thanks to deeply inspiring people like @johnl0cks, @profitpriestess, @thechakragirlco @loveurlifebitch and of course @krisisty.michelle716 who took me out to this epic brunch date, I am finally really experiencing a shift in perspective about how life isn’t just about working to prove something. ✨It’s just as importantly about having a life that is fun and deliciously worth living! ✨I’m now working with Magick
