Building a healing business while actively spiraling (it's giving authenticity) 🩷
Y’all… the irony isn’t lost on me that I’m literally creating a mental health community while also having days like Sunday, when my dad calls mid-nap to move furniture and I immediately start stress-cleaning because I know he’ll comment on my granite countertops πŸ˜…
One day I’m having a breakthrough about rest. The next I’m hiding in my apartment pretending to β€œdo something” while he critiques how dirty my place is.
And honestly? This is the healing journey. Not the Instagram version where everything’s neatly resolved, but the one where:
✨ You still can’t say no when a coworker asks you to cover a shift
✨ You post about rest while staying up too late working
✨ Your inner child is screaming at 3pm on a Tuesday
✨ You’re spiraling but also answering emails
Here’s the wild part: my baby Skool community (2 weeks old!) already has 14 members + 79% engagement. Strangers are more active than my email list. Why? Because people smell real.
Members are literally thanking me for creating a space that feels genuine, not because I have it all figured out, but because I’m willing to share the messy middle.
I’m not building this business after healing. I’m building it inside the healing. And maybe that’s the most authentic thing I’ve ever done.
Anyone else creating something meaningful while actively figuring it out?
