Back Yourself.

I watched a show recently where Australian Hat Maker Laura from @phyllidesigns was asked what her advice was to someone dreaming of taking the leap and making a change in their life.

She said….BACK YOURSELF.

Such a good reminder as a creative and business owner.

It can be easy to get into a spiral of devaluing who we are and what we do.

Or doubting we have anything of value to share.

Of course, as with any pursuit, doing the work and making mistakes are part of the process. It will feel messy at times. Laura went on to say,

“If you know what you stand for and what motivates you, and you back yourself, you are unstoppable.”

We can have lots of voices encouraging us, saying how much they support and love what we do- but until we own it and back ourselves, it’s hard to move from where we are, to what we dream of.

Doing the work of discovering what motivates you, what your values are, what influences you and what you prefer will build confidence in you.

Backing yourself in the process is what actually propels you to where you want to be!

Do you back yourself?

Peace & Love,
