Well isn’t this something… here I am, after 10+ long years of being a stay at home/ work from home mom, all 3 of my kids are now full time Elementary school students! I am now 40 and I never thought this day would come. I seriously didn’t.
This morning… I packed the kids' lunches and backpacks and sent them all onto that big yellow cheese at 8:40am and guess what… I teared up for about 3 steps back to the house… and then ran errands without having to fight anyone about it… because I am by myself!
Free as a bird… I can leave, and no one would know! or care…
I can walk the dog without announcing to everyone when I'll be back!
And what’s more? Here I am, FINALLY writing this blog, something I’ve always wanted to keep up with, but just could not… I’d write… and what I was writing would be enough to take anyone in a good mood to a grumpy one! I think it was my therapy but not a way to build a business, haha.
Opening this new chapter in my life I decided to hire a business/ life coach to help support me and get me back on track. I know I could do it alone, eventually, but I am so sick of doing everything alone. I had minimal support with the kids and I've learned that it totally sucks doing everything alone… I want and need the support of a coach and other women who are trying to crush it! So thanks to Meagan Fitzgerald and her 6 month Abundant Business program, I’ve set my sights on a new offering - Fitness Photography.
As we were on our discovery call together she said “April, why don’t you marry your love for photography with your love for fitness?!” I said oh my lord, I can do that?! Haha. Banishing any self doubt, I have now set out to make this new offering a success.
I’m trying not to get myself all overwhelmed with wanting/needing to work around the clock but when I get focused and excited on something, it takes me over. With a few extra hours to myself each day I’ll be here chiseling away at helping to empower other women with photography!
So be sure to check back in once in a while to catch up with the latest!
Xo,
April
