I’m going to tell you a secret... Between famil I’m going to tell you a secret... Between family, work, and endless to-do lists, it can feel like there’s never enough time to create. But, in the middle of all the chaos, it’s so important to carve out space for what fills your soul. 🧶✨ Whether it’s early mornings or late nights, making space for your creative me-time deserves the same respect as everything else on your plate. 🌸 Let your loved ones know: this is your creative recharge. And it’s OK to need that space to let your imagination run free. 💡🎨 Tag someone who gets it! Or share if you’re making your art amidst life’s beautiful madness! ❤️ #creativebalance #makersgonnamake #timeforart #handmadewithlove #womenwhocreate #CraftYourOwnPath #smallbusinesssupport #craftshow

Here’s your pep talk for today —> READ THIS B Here’s your pep talk for today —> READ THIS Being a creative business owner isn’t easy or pretty. There’s a lot of crap (accounting, answering emails, updating your website, bookkeeping, contracts, marketing, answering DMs, taxes, customer service, shipping, & a million other tasks) that you have to do to keep your business running. And, you probably do all or most of this yourself. And, you’re probably raising kids or pets and managing a family or friends and mental health and trying to take care of yourself and be creative and do ALL things. It’s. Not. Easy. But... it is worth it. I think it is. I’d rather trade all those late nights & early mornings, & many years of being terrified the day rent was due as I starting & growing my businesses for settling into gainful employment doing something that doesn’t feed my soul. I struggled for a long time. It took me forever to learn to delegate (I’m still working on that one). Sometimes it feels like as soon as you have something figured out, something comes along and shakes things up (hello to COVID, video being key on social media and so many other things that threw me for a loop over the years). Each of those things that kept me on my toes also reminded me that I’m scrappy and creative. They reminded that I chose this life as a creative business owner. And, every morning when I wake up and open my computer, I chose it again. And every night when I close my computer I say thank you that after 20 years of being my own boss, I still love what I do and feel like it matters. So, yeah, it isn’t easy but the worth it things often aren’t. If you’re a creative business boss looking for your community and support, join us this spring at Craftcation. Discounted early bird registration is open now. #craftersofinstagram #makersofinstagram #craftcation #smallbusinesssupport #smallbusinessowner #makersgonnamake #smallbusiness #smallbizowner
