A full week of being FULL TIME Alyssa Eakin Studio!!! 🥹😭 Like what?!?!
And I think the biggest adjustment has honestly been realizing… wait, I can decide what my day looks like now. 😂
I have worked for someone else in some capacity basically my entire adult life. There has always been a schedule, somewhere I needed to be, hours that belonged to someone else. And this week I’ve caught myself multiple times having to rewire my brain because… I don’t have to do that anymore.
Obviously I still have deadlines. 😂 I have clients I care DEEPLY about, work I want to do really freaking well, emails to answer, calls to take and a business to actually RUN.
But I also have three babies who are only going to be this little once.
And today I got to do both.
We prayed together. I answered emails. We survived Liam’s four-year shots… barely. 😂 We went to Target TWICE because of course we did. Liam bought our Chick-fil-A with 25 cents. I took work calls in the car. We went bowling with my mom + grandma. Ate banana pudding from a peach cobbler place because that makes sense. 😂 Then I came home, got some really good work in and we ended the night together when Jacob got home.
THAT is the kind of day I want more of.
Not because it was perfectly balanced. It absolutely was not. 😂 But because I got to decide.
I got to be really present with my kids AND show up for the people who trust me with their businesses.
And that freedom means more to me than I think I even realized it would.
I don’t know exactly what every season of this business will look like. I just know I’m really grateful God gave me the courage to finally step into this one.
Week one. 🥹🤍 And dang, I’m grateful to be here.
