I gave birth today – not in the hospital and not to an 8 pound baby boy, but to a product that has been a dream of mine for over three years (to find out more about this amazing program go HERE).
Last fall a friend of mine made the comment that it was “time to give birth”, and she was so very right. It was a long and arduous labor (and I do mean labor), but I finally completed the last steps last night and hit the ‘live’ button on my website.
Today feels sparkling and new – that first step was a doozey: getting all the puzzle pieces figured out so that they all fit and make a worthy product. I love how it turned out, but I love more the fact that I did it – I took a dream and made it a reality….and considering all the effort it took, it’s no wonder I dragged my feet for so long.
Now comes the next phase of promoting this product. I don’t know how to do that any more than I knew how to take my dream and make a finished product out of it – but I know I’ll figure it out as I go.
I’ll be able to practice what I preach by leaning into fear and stepping boldly into the unknown. Not bad for someone who started out painfully shy and insecure.
I AM LIVING PROOF THAT ONE COURAGEOUS ACT LEADS TO ANOTHER. And I started with baby steps many years ago – the difference is that I continued to move forward until I could no longer ignore the call to give birth. It is done, it is here, I can actually hold it in my hands.
Ahhh, sweet child of mine – let’s go out and see the world together.
