Putting my foot down with my employer…

If you have been following me for a while, you know that I night life as a bartender. I do this purely out of the fact that I love it.

The other night I realized, I don’t get paid enough to deal with the s**t that I do. Most people know that servers and bartenders don’t get paid minimum wage and live off of their tips. As of late, those tips haven’t been making the bills, let alone deal with the condescending attitudes of the people that frequent the place. It was starting to take a toll on my mental and physical well being.

I was always told, well read, that if you feel the need to get a second job, to start a business. After a while that business will take care of you and you will only have that business and can and will expand on it.

So, that’s what I did.

In setting boundaries with my employer, I now have the time to put into my business, and for my mental and physical well being. Just having three days off every other week has helped me flourish as a person and a business woman and has helped me to see my worthiness to be able to succeed in whatever I want to.

Discovering your worth as a CEO of your own business is never easy. Whether it is setting boundaries with clients, or in my case other employers, increasing your prices or putting an hour aside a day to work on your mindset.
YOU WERE BORN WORTHY & the universe loves you. It wants to see you succeed. And you will once you start to reroute those negative thoughts that pop into your head. Mindset is key when it comes to knowing your self-worth.

Save this post for later and DM me to see how I can help you feel worthy in your business.

What you see vs my reality

I always want to be real with YOU and here’s why...

The women who I admire aren't the ones who have it all figured out because I can't relate to that.

They're the women who have had the universe throw them curveballs and they knock it out of the park. They stumble and get back up. They make a poor decision and learn from it. They don't judge others and have a grace of abundance.

I was told by a new friend the other day that I am so easy to talk to. And although I may have many, many faults, having my guard up and pretending to be someone I am not, isn't one of them.

So when it comes to my business, I am the same way. We all struggle.

I struggle with
Doubt
Fear
Mindset
Failures
Imposter Syndrome

You aren't alone. So the next time you're comparing yourself or your business to someone else's, remember, we have all had a day ONE and we are always learning, too.

DM me if you are ready to take your business to the next level with the backend support you need!!

Why I decided to INVEST in MYSELF…

Let’s be honest, no one likes to work the 9-5 grind. Me, specifically, I was working the 4-2 grind as a night time bartender. My body hated me most days as the job is physically demanding and got to the point that I could barely feel my feet unless I saw a chiropractor.

After 10 years of playing the nightlife, the worst happened. I found out I needed surgery, not even on my feet or back like one would expect. No… I needed it on my face. The problem being, insurance was only going to pay for half of it, and I couldn’t get the surgery done unless it was paid for upfront. On top of that, I would need a month off to recover.

So, I did what anyone else would do, and threw myself into work. I picked up extra shifts and even thought about getting another job during the day to help save up.

As I was looking into daytime jobs, I found listings for virtual assistants, and being the nosy person I am, I looked into it. After a few days of research and following people that did the job, I hired a coach to teach me the ways.

Now, this was NOT a small investment. I literally threw all the savings that I had built up to that point for my surgery and impending time off into this course. For the first time in a long time, I was investing my MYSELF.

Not only did I have to make this work at this point, I HAD NO CHOICE!

I told myself that, if I made this work, not only could I potentially remake the money I just spent, I could be making more and even replace my bartending gig at some point. So now it was down to me.

The reason most people won’t invest in themselves is because they are afraid of letting themselves down, they have no excuse. YOU have to make the decisions and put in the work to make your own dreams come true and if YOU aren’t willing to do that, then why would anyone else?
