    Letting go is much harder than it seems– when we re-examine how much of ourselves we've poured into projects, it can be a real challenge to finally let go and move on with something you find much more fulfilling. This is how I started to feel about my business before, where I would build up other people's brands, their reputations; and I was struggling in the background trying to keep up with the day to day grind. It was scary to think about what I needed to do. Where would I even start? Would I be okay without my best clients? And my main source of income? Little did I know that I just needed to meet the right people at just the right time. Join me in this conversation as I share with you guys how I got the ball rolling for myself!   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: My honeymoon, and the people I met that inspired change Finally realizing that I was unfulfilled in my business Taking that first step and building my own brand Acknowledging that my past business helped me ready myself for a new journey   Earlier in the episode, I mentioned that the Create Your Purpose Collective waitlist is re-opening!
