I was not designed to be apart of the work force
I never saw the point
It never felt good
I hated being ‘bossed’ around
I prefer co creation over dictation
I never understood exchanging my time for money
And sacrificing what I wanted to create
I found a job so suffocating for my soul
It took me away from the things that lit me up
When I became a mother this became even harder
I was a single mum when the kids were 3 and 4
And wanted to be there the bring them up
By the time they went to school
I was forced by the government to find work
We are so privileged in this country to receive this kind of support but it came with control 👿
The thought of loosing financial support was terrifying
I was already on the poverty line
It was almost impossible to find something that supported me to pick them up and drop them off
Where I didn’t have to work nights
Weekends or school holidays
This is when the entrepreneurial life began to attract me
It wasn’t until 2019 that my soul chose it and I began to work towards where I am now
I remember the day so clearly
I had called up my workplace to get my shift covered
My little girl was sick and couldn’t go to school
I had to ‘ASK’ my boss if it was ok to stay home with her
Her response was ‘you will have to find someone to watch her or send her to school’
This was the final piece for me
Yet again the fear of loss was there
Would I loose my job if I didn’t go in
Would I loose my income If didn’t go in
I stayed with my little girl and gave her what she needed
I retired from the work force December last year
I worked towards my goal
And I will NEVER look back
For those of you who are working towards your goal
I see you
It is possible to create your dream life
Keep going
I love you xxx
