There's been a fair amount of guilt too, as I still have a list of things To Do for work that seems to be continually growing, and I don't know about you, but when I'm having fun, after awhile I start wondering if I'm just being frivolous and wasting time. However I am beginning to realise that in order to be the best of who I am, both personally and professionally, I need to return to the source.
Over the last 5 years I've been so focussed on building our business, that I've neglected everything else. Now, I stand here, grateful for the work we have, but I feel depleted and tired. Our work has always been an extension of us, but somehow I've allowed it to become the sum of us.
I know now in order to continue growing professionally, I need to pause and allow myself to catch up again spiritually. That space in between, the pausing, can be uncomfortable. The uncertainty of what the future looks like can be unsettling. The letting go of other peoples expectations and judgements hard.
But I am trusting that my heart will lead me in the right direction.

I've just discovered your blog and it's SO lovely! I've been finding myself in a similar place recently - I've been so busy working that I've had to pencil time into my schedule for the things that should be most natural, like having fun and exploring my spirituality. I'm happy to see that following your heart seems to be leading you in the right direction :)
