✨️ Real Talk from a Self-Employed mum ✨️

☀️Good morning you lovely lot☀️

Shop Life ❤️
The shop is shut again today, Shelby still ain't well. Balancing running a business with motherhood is wild, specially in the six weeks, it becomes even more challenging.

The Juggle is Real 🤹‍♀️
The boys are my top priority and when they’re not well, everything else takes a backseat. This means that sometimes, the shop is shut, business tasks get delayed, meetings get rescheduled & deadlines get pushed. It’s not easy (I don't say this lightly, its awful, sending them emails, making them calls) but it’s necessary.

Embracing Flexibility ⏱️
This one is hard, so many feeling, when I'm off, whether its a day off or boys are ill, appointment ect, I feel guilty & s**tty, it's a balance & I've not worked it out yet,
One of the reasons I chose to be self-employed is the flexibility it offers. I can be there for my kids when they need me most. It’s a privilege

Support and Understanding 💖
To my wonderful clients, customers and followers, thank you for your continued support & understanding during these times. Your patience & encouragement mean the world to me and the boys 💕

A Note to Fellow Mums 🌸
To all the mums out there, I see you, and I know the struggle is real. We wear many hats, and some days are tougher than others. remember, you’re doing an amazing job, and it’s okay to take a break when your family needs you.

✨️Wishing health and happiness to all our little ones &
Strength to all the parents juggling it all ✨️

It's getting a little scary and exciting all at the same time, I've asked myself a 100 times, have I done the right thing, with Shelby being so little, the risk, the current financial climate, the looming recession, what was I thinking and the truth is, I just want to be able to provide better, more, take the boys away, buy us a house one day, maybe a little caravan by the seaside 🌊🐚 expand my little business and grow, we got though covid and I felt ready to up the game, yes it's a risk, but I'm a risk it for a biscuit kind of girl 🍪
And I've always dreamed of having a little shop, when I was a kid, banging away on an old till my dad brought home from a job, playing shop 🛍🛒
Dreams can come true 🌈 and no one is more shocked than me 🤣😬😝
I ain't preaching either, I'm not saying I got it sorted or solved, far from it, I'm a work in progress and so is the shop, I've just started to come into my own and if you still don't know, its okay, feeling lost, it will be okay, your find your way, trust me, the best is yet to come Xx
