No time is the right time to start a business, at least, that's what I kept telling myself as I came up with excuse after excuse as to why I "couldn't" do it. However, I never spent time coming up with why I COULD do it. After some much needed reflection, I realized that this was something I could do. So here we are!
Spring time is known for rebirth as the world comes alive again. I'm using that idea to give myself the confidence and motivation for my own rebirth, as the interior designer I know that I am just have kept hidden away for awhile. I let doubt and fear rule my life for too long and I'm now changing that.
This process has been a huge learning experience, one that I am happy to have. I have already proven to myself that I am able to do anything if I put my mind to it! Or at least, if I do enough research beforehand (big thanks to my BA in history for giving me the necessary tools for research and learning).
I am reintroducing myself into the design world, this time promoting myself and my business and I am excited to do so. I know that I have more to learn and I will continue to grow through this process but I am lucky enough to have a family who supports me in this endeavor and is willing to lend me a hand when needed. Especially my Dad who had hopes I would take over his business one day (sorry Dad!). Without him, none of this would be possible!
So, as I love a good pun, this spring I am springing myself into a new career, business and adventure and would be happy to bring everyoe along for the ride!
Thanks for reading!
