Hello Friend,
Have you ever felt like life suddenly leveled up on you — without asking permission first?
I thought this season would be my chance to finally show up more — for my business, my family, and myself. But instead, I found myself staring down a mountain of responsibilities, feeling like I was one step away from a total meltdown.
One day last week, I hesitated before replying to a simple email because I knew it would trigger more work. I literally said to myself, “Don’t do it, Rebecca…” and then — yep — hit send anyway. (Have you ever done that?)
It got me thinking... what is the Universe trying to tell me?
Am I supposed to slow down and focus on my day job? Is it pushing me to finish what’s already on my plate before moving forward? Or is this just one of those messy seasons that’s actually teaching me how to trust myself more?
Whatever the answer is, I realized I’m not alone in this. And neither are you.
Some of us are like my son Grayson — charging ahead, willing to face the same challenge over and over until we break through. Others are more like my husband Jeff — methodical, thoughtful, collecting tools along the way. Me? I fall somewhere in the middle.
In today's blog post, I’m sharing what these recent weeks have shown me about how we each move through life in our own way — and how powerful it can be when we start recognizing the signs, the tools, and the people placed in our path.
If you’ve ever struggled to keep going when life feels too full — or questioned whether you're doing enough — this one’s for you.
