I almost didn't post this video.
It felt too honest. Too raw. Too much like admitting something I wasn't sure I was ready to say out loud. But here it is: I think this online journey might be my drug. And I'm not sure I want to fix that. When things are going well here, when I feel like I'm moving forward, creating something real, my whole life feels good. I want to exercise, I'm excited to wake up, I enjoy being with the people I love. But when I'm struggling... everything crumbles. My sleep, my relationship with myself, my sense of worth. All of it... I recorded this video trying to figure out if that's healthy or not. And honestly.. I don't have a clean answer. But I have a feeling a lot of you will relate to it. If you've ever felt like your passion project or your business has become the thing your whole emotional life orbits around, this one's for you. Anyone else feels this way?

This is so wonderful. I first want to say thank you for sharing your experience. What I got from this and how I relate to this perspective was that silent feeling that appears in cycles on our journey… I call it or more describe it as this empty gray area that doesn’t seem to fill, unless I have something that satisfies me…I first have to say that my journey building a business is very hard but very satisfying and my faith that I’ll achieve my success motivates me while I’m in the grind, ESPECIALLY when you see things work and slowly evolving… then there is the moment where I sit with myself and realize “man but when will I get there” so then meanwhile I’m on the road to getting there I fill myself with good habits and sometimes binge on not so good habits , the good habits keep me grounded , like taking long walks while the sun has been out and days are so beautiful, and some bad habits would be eating an unhealthy amount of cookies and ice cream 😅, I find so much comfort in treats…. But the result is not the greatest… so then here I am making small wins daily by NOT eating that treat and having a better option instead … not sure if this is relative but that’s how I felt as you spoke to us.
I've been overthinking this for 2 weeks. Here's what I realised today.
I want to be honest with you about something. For the past two weeks I've been completely stuck. I kept asking myself: am I helping the right people? Is my positioning aligned? Should I be doing ads or organic? Am I being authentic or am I just copying what works for someone else? I was going in circles. And the more I tried to find the perfect answer, the more paralysed I became. Today something shifted. I realised I was treating alignment and making money as opposites, like I had to choose one or the other. But they're not opposites. They're the same journey, just different stages. Getting your first paying client is step one. Building something scalable and sustainable is step two. I've done step one. I'm figuring out step two in real time... right here, with you. That's what this community is. It's definitely not a finished system. But a real journey, documented honestly... If you've ever felt stuck between doing what feels right and doing what actually works, I see you. That's exactly where I was this morning. Where are you on your journey right now? Drop a comment? I'd genuinely love to know. 🧡

Very good insight ! Although my experience is not so much like yours , I am finding myself in a building phase , almost like you’re the needle 🪡 in a haystack, or the diamond 💎 in the rough, I have a cookie business that requires all of me, and although I’ve done all the shiny things on my end to make it a good experience for others, like shipping, and creating a website for better processing, and making several delicious recipes. I can’t do volume , it’s just me… how much I bake is what I make. And only if I had an army of people making my cookies and keeping my store stocked, I literally would be able to make a decent living.

@Lara Bruyelles thank you , I feel in myself that this is not the right time to jump into this option. There are other things I am excited about that are in the flourish phase, so meanwhile, I will do all I can to better grow my internal mental capacity , for when that time comes I don't miss that opportunity.
I gave myself permission to disappear for a night.
Threw a party with friends last week. Stayed out late. Had drinks. Laughed until my face hurt. Didn't check my phone once for work. For someone who spends most days inside their head building a business, this felt absolutely terrifying and also the most alive I've been in weeks. I kept waiting for the guilt to show up, the voice that says I should be working, posting, optimizing. It never came. Instead I woke up the next day with more energy than I've had in months. Turns out letting go of what you think you should be doing gives you way more fuel than white-knuckling through another productive evening ever could. Sometimes the best thing you can do for your business is remember you're still a person. What's one thing you used to love doing before you became a business owner that you've completely stopped making time for?

It’s always such a good feeling knowing YOU made a decision and gave yourself the permission to just BREATHE. I love this for you ! There comes a time when we realize we have done such a good job creating something from nothing and it’s FINALLY working. I imagine many millionaires or people well off do take these short resets or time to have a little fun as an inspiration and motivation for themselves, so they can come back to work knowing exactly why they are doing it. Sending positive vibes and your success !

We recently hit 100 members in the community, and I'd like to thank every single one of you, Aligned Creators, for trusting this space and honouring it with your presence. I would love to understand a little bit more about where you all are in your journey so that we can get the community to support you best. Where are you all at? How many of you already got their first paying client through coaching, and how many of you didn't? Feel free to write in the comments. What would be supporting you right now? Talking about - The emotional side of building a business? - What an aligned business truly feels like to you? - More concrete strategies to get clients? - Networking? Every single day we align with who we deeply are and the business we're building, we're changing the world. Let's support each other through this shift ❤️❤️
