Bear with me, I’ve had a lot on my mind lately.
After 7 straight weeks of nonstop, I’ve finally had time to sit down, reflect, and do a whole lot of praying for guidance and clarity.
Maybe I’m a du***ss for sharing my thoughts about my own business, but that’s just who I am. And if this speaks to even ONE other small business owner, I’ll be pretty damn happy I shared it.
I’ve come to a humbling realization, somewhere along the way, I got caught up in MORE. More cookies. More flavors. More sales. Don’t sell out. Don’t disappoint anyone. Keep up with demand. And let’s be real, watching your business grow feels pretty damn good.
But somewhere in all that excitement, I lost sight of why I started. I LOVE creating cookies, perfecting recipes, making people laugh, and handing someone something I’m genuinely proud of.
But lately, I’ve been so focused on making ENOUGH that I haven’t always given myself the time to make the BEST.
And that’s hard to admit.
As a one-woman business, I’ve put so much pressure on myself to please everyone that I’ve forgotten it’s okay to slow down. It’s okay to sell out. It’s okay to offer fewer flavors.
Just because I CAN do more doesn’t mean I SHOULD.
I’m not looking for sympathy. I’m sharing because maybe another business owner needs this reminder too.
I don’t want to build a business I’m too busy to enjoy. I want to get back to creating, appreciating my customers, and making some damn good cookies.
I’m human. I make mistakes. I’m still learning. And sometimes I need to sit my own ass down and remember what matters.
I’m beyond grateful for everyone who supports this little business of mine.
So here’s to doing BETTER, not necessarily BIGGER.
Quality over quantity. Always.
