A Quick Reset for the Week + A Realization 💭🫢

Ladies, as we step into this week, I want to share something I’ve been sitting with over the last couple of weeks…

If I’m being honest, part of the reason I fell behind on posting and even building the way I planned wasn’t just capacity. It was also something deeper.

I recently took the Enneagram and learned I’m a Type 1, the Moral Perfectionist🫣. What stood out to me is that for me, it’s not just about wanting things to be perfect. It’s about wanting things to be done a specific way.

So if it doesn’t feel like the right way yet, I slow down, overthink it, or delay it altogether.

And I realized this has been showing up in how I’ve been building.

As I sat with that, I started thinking about you all.

For some of you, it may not just be time or capacity either.

It might look like:

• Waiting until you feel clearer before you start

• Overthinking every step before taking action

• Starting a lot of things but struggling to finish

• Feeling like it has to be done right before you move forward

• Fear of doing it wrong

• Or avoiding it because it feels bigger than what you can hold right now

We touched on how you’re wired back in Week 1, but this feels like another layer. It’s not just how you’re gifted, but why you do what you do and the patterns that might be quietly slowing you down.

As we move into this next phase, this matters more than we think.

Because we’re stepping into building systems in Q2.

Before we build systems, we need to understand what breaks them.

The same patterns that slow us down in building will follow us into our systems if we don’t recognize them.

So here’s what I want to invite you into, nothing heavy:

If this resonates with you, take a little time to explore it.

You can take a simple Enneagram test. There are plenty online. I’ve also included a trusted, faith-centered option below if that feels more aligned for you.

Not to label yourself, but to notice:

• What might be influencing how I move?

• What might be causing me to pause, delay, or overthink?

No pressure to go deep right now. Just awareness.

Because clarity doesn’t always come from doing more. Sometimes it comes from seeing what’s been there all along.

If you do take it or already know your type, drop it below 👇🏾 I’d love to see what you’re discovering about yourself in this season.
