Inspire the Tribe X No Kids Allowed DC

 So... I didn’t do a real year end recap of 2020. Honestly so much happened, and I just didn’t have the energy. BUT one cool thing that took place was my collaboration with No Kids Allowed (@nka.dc)! These special colorways can be found in their gifting shop in Eastern Market. Check them out if you’re in the DC area.

End of Year Recap: 2020

 2020,

you beautiful crazy mess, you.

it feels cliche to say, but this year taught me more

it toughened me.

I laughed (somehow),

cried

and a part of me died.

but the rest of me lived to see another day 

and that is something I will never take for granted again.

I found immense success in my business endeavors

profit from my website alone increased 2,582% from the year prior.

my highest grossing year yet

and more than all of the years I've been in business

... combined!

but more importantly than that, I grew more connected with my TRIBE community 

and the outpouring of love was felt.

my products were featured in multiple monthly subscription boxes, 

two mobile bookshops

a brick and mortar store in DC

and I worked on new collaborations that excited and challenged me.

I set goals and crushed them - set new goals and reached them.

proud of the woman that I show up as 

each day more powerful than the last

and I have no plans of slowing down.

2021 feels promising

 is it too late for a year end recap?

I want to do one because 2020 was a huge year for me 

but I also don't feel like putting it together

...

I may circle back around

 I have complete confidence in myself and my abilities

people pleasing is out of the door

I've watched others allow fear to hold them back from what they really wanted,

and I won't make that same mistake

pros vs cons

the difference between givers and takers is the latter never stop/ satisfied

I'd rather you show me than tell me

forever grateful for anyone that goes out of their way to make me smile

seeing your not so flattering traits reflected back to you in the form of another is very eye opening 

to say the least

this year far exceeded my expectations in many ways

a one woman show and I'm killing it

the story's not over yet
