Obstacles & Rest Stops



Today was suppose to be the great unveiling of the new Dirty Footprints Studio.  I have been working on creating a new site for quite a while now--even hired one of the greatest (and heart centered) designers I know too to help out--and guess what?  A couple days ago all my hard work just vanished.

Poof! Gone! Adios! Ba-bye!

Yeah.

Let us take a moment of silence please.
{Thank you.}

So, after throwing a tiny little fit, eating a huge bowl of chips and salsa with cream cheese, and having an excellent life-changing long conversation with one of my besties--I just decided to embrace this obstacle as a gift and get over myself.

Now I have a moment to check back in with my truth and really be certain that I am staying honest to my mission and vision--and purely working from my heart--from the juicy flow of my life--and not just trying to make things happen--or trying to be a certain way.

Those are two traps that are super easy to fall in, dontcha think?!? And I think I'm not alone in tripping through them from time to time.

So that's where I'm at.

Breathing deeply and practicing going with the flow!

A new Dirty Footprints Studio will be opening soon.

I can't wait to share it with you soon.

So sorry this happened! I know how much I was looking forward to seeing the new site so that's prolly about 1/1000th as excited about it as you were feeling. Here's a little premium ice cream and gobs of good wishes for whatever you decide to do with the site next. You will bounce back, Connie, with maybe something even better or maybe even closer to the real you -- you are an amazing dynamo that way. Meanwhile, this site is pretty darn nifty as is and it works just fine, too. xo

Ohhh Connie...I'm so sorry. Sending you hugs, deep breaths, smoothies, and sunshine. I know your new reveal--whenever and however it comes--will be beautiful and lively and luscious, just like you.

Ah, yes, the perils of technology. In situations like that, I'm usually left wondering - is this happening because I wasn't meant to be doing it (or doing it this way), or is this a test of my commitment to pursuing my dream? The Universe works in mysterious ways. Hope it gets sorted soon. Whatever happens, I suspect that there's no-one better equipped than you, dear Connie, to know which direction to take from here. xxoo
