We were supposed to be heading to Maine right now 🥺
|
Saturday behind the scenes. We were supposed to leave for Maine tonight. A trip we had been looking forward to for weeks. Friends we have not seen in a while, a different environment, some space from everything that has been heavy lately. My wife and I just needed to get away... away from the grind, away from the situation with our friends here that has been sitting on both of us, and away from the constant go go go that has been our life lately. The car situation this week killed it. So instead, my wife is at a friend's birthday celebration and I'm home alone, sitting with it and trying not to spiral into the disappointment of it all. And if I am being honest... I am bummed like genuinely bummed. Not falling apart, not in crisis, just that quiet heavy feeling of something you were really looking forward to not happening and all the reasons you needed it still being there. So here is what today looks like behind the scenes. Me sitting at my computer working on the vision I am building, going through multiple versions of things, and trying to stay focused on what I am creating, even when my energy is low and my heart is somewhere on a highway headed to Maine. This is the part of building something that nobody really shows you. It is not always momentum and breakthroughs and signing clients and feeling on fire. Sometimes it is a Saturday afternoon alone, a little down, pushing through anyway because you believe in what you are building, even on the days it does not feel exciting. Something else has been sitting with me today too. Connection. It is something I am still figuring out. I have been thinking about what it means to have real deep connection here where we are, because if I am honest, I do not feel like I have that. Not the kind that goes beneath the surface and that loneliness is real even when life looks okay from the outside. I do not have a neat answer for it today. I am just sitting with the question. Where do I find my people? Where is that deep connection I am craving? I don't know yet but I am paying attention to it and I think that is what the work looks like sometimes... not solving everything, just being honest enough with yourself to name what is missing. That is my Saturday. Not pretty. Not inspiring. Just real and I think real is worth something.

Let me get real with you today because I have been on both sides of this one. I used to say it all the time. "That's just who I am." Not because I was being lazy or making excuses but because I genuinely did not know anything different. I was so deep in survival mode, depression, anxiety, mood swings running everything and everyone around me was the same way. That was just life. That was just how people were. I didn't know another way existed. So when something came up, when someone called me...
For most of my life I thought I was just tired. Not tired like I needed more sleep. Tired like I was dragging something heavy everywhere I went and could not figure out what it was or why it would not go away no matter what I did. I just assumed that was life. Nobody told me any different. Here's some of what I was actually carrying. I was 10 years old when my parents got divorced and it was not the quiet kind. I got put in the middle of it. Things were said to me that a 10 year old should...
Before this week starts I want to say something directly to you. Not a framework or a lesson. Just this. If you spent last week feeling like you were failing... like you kept messing up... like you tried and fell short and ended up right back in the same place you always end up... I need you to hear this before Monday hits. Nothing is wrong with you. You are not lazy, broken or the exception to every rule. You are not someone who just cannot change no matter how hard you try. You are someone...
