We’re human.
And sometimes people customers, other business owners, whoever forget that.
A lot can happen behind the scenes that’s completely out of our control. It gets overwhelming, it gets stressful, and we still try to show up every single day.
I’ve always been that 24/7 hustler.
No matter what sick, exhausted, overwhelmed, dealing with family emergencies, crying, happy, sad my #1 priority has always been to get every order out. That was my mindset for YEARS.
But this year? Whew. A major awakening.
The fatigue hit different.
I’ve been working since I was 13… I’m 37 now. And I’m finally learning I have to think about ME too.
Yes, I have a good system. Yes, I know how many orders I can realistically take each month. But when unexpected situations happen, instead of rushing, stressing, and trying to juggle a million things at once, I would rather refund with at least 3 weeks’ notice than deliver something I’m not proud of or damage my peace.
Some people will understand.
Some won’t.
And that’s okay.
If I’ve ever refunded you and you feel like you can no longer order from me… no love lost. I appreciate you for even supporting my business in the first place. Truly.
But please remember: I have to think about ME as well.
Have a blessed Monday, everyone. 💕✨
