My Lady Hustle - February 2025

A sigh of relief.... 

How long has it been since you’ve had one of those? 

That’s what 2025 feels like for me. Like everything really is working out for me.  

October through December were kind of tough. So many changes. Job loss, heartbreak, moving and the week before I started working my new Job in January, I also lost the part time remote job I had. I was so comfortable last year that I slacked on my hustles big time. I was able to work two parttime jobs at the same time that gave me the flexibility to have freedom and extra money and I squandered it. 🙁  

But 2025. We’re only 1.5 months in and at first, I was stressed over this job. It felt like I wasn’t catching on the way I should have but now, it’s becoming easier. This job keeps me so busy but I actually feel like I’m appreciated and depended on and a valuable part of the team. I honestly don’t think I’ve felt this fulfilled by a job since the job I quit back in 2019 to move to Arizona. I finally feel like a grown-up lol. And I currently have the title as best dressed in the office, just wait till I get some money, I’m really gonna kill it! 😉  

Any who, I feel like I also have a jump for joy after that sigh of relief. I’ve been so motivated and creative this year. You’d think I would’ve been more in that creative and motivated mindset last year, with the extra time I had on my hands Oct- Dec but my mind just wasn’t there.

"My best days are on the way"

What’s exciting is, I’ve always wanted to publish something, put my name on something. I originally created a planner at the end of end of 2022 that I was going to put out when I was had plans to host my first ticketed vision board party, but everything fell through.  There were issues with the digital file I couldn’t get figure out and then a second wave of covid meant the vision board party wasn’t going to happen. But this year everything just fell right in order. I created a journal and then a men's version. Got the proof copies, activated the sales channel on Amazon and ordered 30 of the journals so I can attend local events and try to sell. I opened the box of journals yesterday and that feeling was so much more than a sigh of relief or a jump for joy. To have the clarity and discipline and alignment in your life to take little steps to that lead to something that feels like it’s a part of your calling is so joyous! I’m excited and praying for this wave of goodness to continue to fill my year as I find different ways to satisfy the missing pieces of me.  

Happy 2025 to you all!
