The cost was no longer worth it.

Recently one of my peers asked what had prompted me to completely change how I run my business. I’ve termed my new approach Restful Growth.

I firmly believe you CAN keep growing your business AND rest, too.

Here’s why I made the switch:

  • I was burning myself out at least twice a year. I no longer enjoyed the business I had built. And I felt like I was constantly on call for my clients.
  • I didn’t feel like I had time for me anymore. I was working 14+ hour days plus weekends.
  • I didn’t feel like I could rest and recharge. I was physically and mentally exhausted. My creativity was tapped out.
  • I didn’t feel like I could just focus on enjoying an evening with my husband because clients were messaging me. At one point, my husband got irritated and firmly told me, “It’s after 5:30pm. Do NOT respond to them.” I was torn between supporting a client during their launch and honoring my husband who was looking out for me and my health more than I was.

I busted my butt to help other people with their business, so that they could multiply their revenue. But when I ran my numbers, I only grew by 20%. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not complaining about being up 20% in a down economy.

That’s still good. But many of my clients’ revenue increased by 5x. And here I was holding the short stick.

That’s when I knew I had to change some things.

I could no longer bend over backwards to serve clients while sacrificing my well-being on every single level: physical, emotional, spiritual, financial, and relational.

The cost was no longer worth it. And it was starting to get more and more in my face.

I couldn’t keep ignoring it. I had to make some major shifts or it would keep going like this.

I was physically and emotionally tired. And I didn’t want to do it this way anymore. I had to make some changes in how I allocated my time. I had to draw more boundaries. I needed to focus on me, my health, and my business growth not everyone else’s at the expense of mine.

Fast forward to the present…

After implementing these changes, I can honestly say, “I love it!”

✔️ I think, feel, and operate like a 7-figure CEO.
✔️ I have more space to create than I have in years.
✔️ My day is truly a reflection of my priorities.
✔️ I get more sleep and feel more rested.
✔️ I’m allowing myself extra time to build out what I am called to in this season.
✔️ It feels really good to put me first. And instead of “pushing through,” I honor when my mind or body needs a break.

And my private clients have turned the corner as they’ve embraced this, too.

They’ve gone from feeling maxed out to feeling focused, fulfilled, and prioritizing their faith again.

They’re learning to trust themselves again. And to trust God again.

When you do the inner work… And you make the necessary shifts in your life…

You get to reap the rewards. And now I’m on a mission to help more people experience the benefits of making similar shifts in their business.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Jeremiah 29:11
