I always say, “don’t attach your self worth to the work that you do.” And that’s easy to say when you’re ecstatic about what you do. But when things aren’t going so well it's very difficult to not attach your identity to your work. Because we are a big part of what we do. At least I am. It felt like overnight we went from having our best year to having our worst (financially). From a staff of 8 to a team of 4. From focusing on leads and revenue, to tackling racism. This feeling of being lost, that I've had up until a few weeks ago, has felt so foreign to me. One of our founders moved on to focus on his brand. It was a decision we all agreed with. And he is crushing it. Legit, I am so proud. I also got word that two of my former employees are working with an old client of ours (which is great and I’m happy for them). But on the flip side (and in all transparency) seeing things like that make you question yourself. What am I doing with my life? Am I doing the right thing? I thought I was more talented than this? I thought I was meant for more than this? Why am I not further along? I want to use this edition of the newsletter to dig into the next chapter of my life & how I found clarity. Hopefully it helps some of you on your journey as well. #justQ 🖖🏽🖤 #entrepreneurship
