Can I be honest for a moment?

Building a business whilst juggling part time jobs and managing a chronic illness is not easy.

I’m trying to balance earning enough money, finding time to work on my business whilst also making sure I have enough time to rest to avoid flare ups.

I have to keep reminding myself why I’m doing this, why I left my 9-5 and how, in the long term, this will be better for my health and mind.

But when you’re in the middle of something it’s so hard to see the whole picture.

It’s hard to get my head around sometimes, how in order to create a more fulfilling and calming lifestyle, I need to be in this interim part, where it’s quite stressful and full of uncertainty.

Again, I have to keep reminding myself why I’m doing this.

I’ve always known I’ve wanted a career that helps people. Graphic design didn’t quite cut it. At first, I looked into therapy, but soon realised, after being told by a spiritual hostel owner travelling, that it’ll drain me as I won’t be able to leave work at work.

When I came across reiki I felt like I’d found my purpose. I found a way I could help people without draining my energy. The first time I gave someone a treatment during my training all I could think was, this is where I’m meant to be.

So, I feel quite lucky really, despite the battles I’m up against, I’m glad I’ve been able to find something I want to do that fills me up.

If any of this landed for you, why not book a 15 min energy call and I'd be happy to talk through all things reiki healing with you.

Talk soon,
