Nature is my summer sanctuary. 🌿🌞🌸
It's wild how much can change in a year…..
A year ago everything flipped and I went from having these big dreams and life plans to everything freezing in time. My life as I knew it and planned it just stopped and for the first time in a very long time the future that I imagined in my head was gone. I had put so much time and energy into planning the next thing and being 10 steps ahead that I didn’t even take a second to breathe and look around.
Now a year later it’s crazy how much my life has changed and how I have new goals and dreams to look forward to. But I also am learning to be present and LIVE and breathe and take in each day on this beautiful place we call home. I wouldn’t be the person I am today without the broken version of me a year ago. I wouldn’t be as confident as I am now without having the find it inside me. And above EVERYTHING else I found love, self-love ❤️ a love so deep and raw I didn’t even realize it was missing till I found it again. True happiness in life has to start with you. For ANYONE in life who is dealing with things or plans not going how you thought, take a deep breath in. Know that every obstacle in life is just a way to make you the truly beautiful authentic person you are meant to be. ❤️
I am getting so excited to (almost) finish my goal of 100 mountain bike rides 💛
This has been an emotional journey as much as it has been a physical one. I’ve been battling all my emotions lately with this goal and honestly just life recently and I’m so thankful I found a new form of therapy (although actual therapy is truly AMAZING). The one thing I’ve gotten out of all these rides is that I can do anything I put my mind to. Yeah I know you’re saying “But Cat of course you can do anything you put your mind to.“ As much as I always “knew it” I finally believe it.
If you asked me a few years ago if I thought I would be crushing my little small business in the mountains I honestly would probably have said no. But here I am. The most confident and free I’ve maybe ever felt.
To anyone who’s ever questioned my goals or made me feel bad about them, I want to say thank you. Because without you I wouldn’t be the badass version of myself that I am today. 💛
✨Goals give me life! ✨
I love being able to set goals personally, professionally, and everything in between. This summer/fall I am trying to bike 100 mountain bike rides and as of right now I’m at exactly 50 rides! Halfway wahoooo!
It’s been challenging but beyond fun to get these rides in. I also have some big goals for the fall for Mountain Cat Media. Onboarding new clients, hiring someone (finally), and getting my new website up and running!
Do you like goals? What goals do you have this year?
When I started Mountain Cat Media I had no idea just how much good can come from using social media. Through all my clients and connections I have truly felt like I have impacted so many different organizations.
I have been so fortunate to volunteer with two amazing non-profits that are helping youth who are overcoming challenges some of us have never had to face. @camp.jojo and @club_forget_me_not are two amazing organizations I volunteer with and they truly inspire me and my work daily. If you have a second check them out on social media and see the amazing work they are doing.
What impact have you had with social media?
Here are a few tips and tricks I use in my daily work life that help me stay motivated while running my business.
🤍 Create a morning ritual: It is KEY 🗝 I start my mornings pretty much the same way so that I get into a daily routine. Not only does it keep me on track but it also helps create a pattern so I can stay focused all day.
💚 Always schedule a break to do something fun: No matter what I always try to schedule something fun so that I can focus on finishing all my work for the day. Now that summer is here, I love to go on a mountain bike ride, hike or walk to keep me motivated during the day.
💜 Keep a consistent sleep schedule: Sleep is so important and a good night's sleep will help you be present as focus for the days ahead.
💙 Plan, plan, PLAN: The more you have planned the more you can start to focus on yourself and growing your business!
💛 Change your mindset: If your day isn't going great or you woke up on the wrong side of the bed change your mindset. One of my favorite quotes is “It’s never too late to start the day over.” You can always hit the reset button and have a new outlook on your day.
Hope this helps you today to get motivated ✨
Sometimes all it takes is a little reset in your business to figure out what you truly want for 2021.
✨ What’s a personal goal this year?
✨ What do you hope to see for your business?
✨ How big do you want to grow this year?
✨ What’s your biggest fear for your business?
I love helping my clients figure out the hard questions. Let me help you grow professionally and get your business off and running! Happy March ❤️
