🌟 From Bedside Vigil to Business Owner: The Messy Middle of My Sacred Evolution 🌟
If you saw me three years ago, I was starting a journey as a virtual assistant, looking for my place. Today, I am the proud Co-Owner of Aftercare Partner, working alongside my husband, Stephen, in a mission that honours the quiet moments after a final breath.
That journey was not a straight line. 😅
I just watched a video from Emma Grede about fear (link in the comments), and it hit me—my own growth has been anything but fearless. For over 20 years, my heart was at the bedsides of people with intellectual disabilities, holding space in the silence.
Stepping into this ownership role required a different kind of courage.
I had to learn to put my "big pants on" and find my voice. I had to learn to say "No" to protect our families and our legacy. I have faced tears, frustration, and uncomfortable mistakes while building this business. But every single moment has been worth it.
To my sisters navigating the "messy middle": Please know, you are not alone in this.
I am not here to sell you services. I am here as a mentor to show you that "Backend Overwhelm" is real, but it is not the boss of you. My weekly Google Meet with my accountability partner keeps me grounded, even when we are thousands of miles apart.
Growth is messy, but it is also your Sacred System in the making.
As they say in my circle— —because I've cried through it and come out stronger.
Take a breath. If you need a friend, I'm right here. 💜
