As small business owners, we have pressure coming from every angle to produce, engage, and "be seen"... particularly in the age of social media.
Hell, every time I log into my business page I'm bombarded by messages from the platform itself of "your outreach has decreased/increased X amount from last week - hurry, post, engage, stay relevant"...
🤢
The reality - sometimes I fall for it. Sometimes those messages put a pit in my stomach and invoke fear... of failure, of irrelevance, of losing "momentum" or whatever else these things are literally created to make you feel.
The truth - Life, or one with substance and quality anyway, requires PRESENCE. And true presence is an unplugged activity.
I'm a better version of myself when I take social media breaks. I'm willing to bet that you are, too. ...
Yes, I'm an entrepreneur.
Yes, I'm a small business owner.
Yes, I live in an age where an online presence is essentially required to facilitate any measure of "success" in these endeavors.
AND, my most important titles (⭐️see photo below) are those that require no wifi, no phone, and no screens...
To all my small business mommas (and dudes too), I see you. You're relevant, you're doing an amazing job, and you ARE ENOUGH.
