Do you have freedom in your life?

One of the main reasons I have worked for myself for the last 11 years is so I could have freedom in my life and run my business on my terms.

This has allowed me to have 4 children and choose my working hours around them, to never miss a birthday, to travel, to work less or more depending on what suited and my goals at that time.

And recently, with the sudden passing of my brother, I have been able to take the time I have wanted and needed to grieve.

I haven’t been “given” 5 days compassionate leave. I took the time I needed to cry, and remember, and be there with my family, to help with funeral plans, to mourn without pressure. And I’m slowly starting to get back to work at a rate that suits me.

For me, becoming an entrepreneur is all about freedom.

Things that have also helped this month is

✨Having and incredible VA who has been the one who has liaised with my clients, keeping them supported and rearranged any calls as needed.

✨Pre-made content for my groups that was able to be added in automatically.

✨Social media manager for my Facebook who has taken care of content on there including graphics, captions and engaging.

✨Monthly recurring revenue from people who had paid via monthly payments rather than upfront, which has meant I haven’t had to worry about money coming in.

✨A community on here who I have actually spent time getting to know and building real relationships with. You have shown me support and I have been able to step away from here and not worry about my engagement.

If you were to take a sudden break from your business would it still be able to work in the background for you?
