I’ve cancelled events. I’ve closed my laptop. I’ve taken a breather.

When life becomes too hectic and I feel like a balloon slowly filling up, I know that’s when it’s time to take a break.

My life circumstances recently have made a major shift and I didn’t have the time or space to pause and breath through it, meaning I was left feeling like a top slowly winding up. So much pressure. So much stress, anxiety and worry that I felt I would just pop and fall apart.

Well, I did pop. I cried in my bosses office, then picked myself up and started a new pattern.

I cancelled my book market this week and lost out $400 for the table fee but for my mental wellness, it is worth it. Because now this weekend I’m going to spend the time to forgive myself, find a new routine and maybe I will even find the spark deep in my heart to open my laptop.

Stay free,
