Taking a Leap

In December of 2023, I made a scary decision.

Sometimes, it feels like life pushes you towards things you’ve wanted to do before you are actually ready. And sometimes life knows that you’re ready way before you feel it.

It was with God’s blessing that I submitted my resignation letter in December of 2023. This left me with the freedom I’d been yearning for, praying for, and the mental relief that I’d been crying for.

I took a leap, choosing to go Full-Time in entrepreneurship. It felt like a weight was lifted from my shoulders, yet at the same time there was another knocking around the corner.

I’m a planner so this decision did come after lots of thought, lots of prayer, and lots of running number but that didn’t leave me any less nervous.

‘It’s been 2 months!? How’s it going??’

Well, nothing’s been easy and it’s taken more to get me off of my feet than expected but I’ve found strength in reminding myself why I made this decision, in letting my friends and family encourage me as needed, and in doing my best to remain focused. I’m not gonna say everything has miraculously gone well and business is booming and all of that, but I will say that business is really looking up and the mentally clarity I have is truly of much greater value than you’d imagine.

I guess this is my way of letting other people like me (young, stressed, confused but with an idea of where you want to be or go and you’re just not sure how or maybe when you’ll get there) know, everything isn’t always in your timing. There’s not always a perfect time either.

Sometimes we just have to let ourselves be guided to where we need or want to be.
