Despite unforeseen personal changes in the past fourteen months, I believe we have positively settled into our new norm.

 

– N&N make me so proud to be their mom, rising above, evolving into thoughtful, respectful young men.

– I’m still convinced I could not have swiped right on a more supportive and caring partner who continues to surprise me with his hard work and consistency, always putting us first.

– I know my mom is looking down as we embrace so many changes. She is at peace knowing we are together, her grandbabies are safe and I’m finally feeding the neighborhood birds.

 

Professionally I’m making intentional changes:

– I took the bold step of redesigning my logo, a move that symbolizes my evolving journey.

– While facing the surprise of losing a major client, I quietly began reshaping my brand’s message, striving for clarity in defining my identity, streamlining operations to reduce overhead costs, and optimizing processes.

– The launch of my email newsletter has met with an overwhelmingly positive response. Welcoming a few new clients into my world signifies significant progress.

 

One thing that hasn’t’ changed:

– I’m a worker bee, focused on propelling things forward rather than constantly watching the build. It’s always a pleasant surprise to see the impressive year-end numbers and stats that reflect my hard work.
