I’ve got an up close and personal episode for you today, sharing an update on life and business as I approach my third trimester of pregnancy. If you’re on the cusp of a transition in your life, you’re levelling up in some way or facing discomfort at the moment, I hope this episode serves as inspiration for you in how to navigate those big changes approaching, whatever they might be.

Sold Out Mastermind

On the business front, we have hit some major milestones which I’m so proud of. One of my big goals was to sell out my Swiftmind Scaled Mastermind before going on maternity leave to secure that recurring revenue and I’m so proud of all the work we have done behind the scenes to achieve this. With this safety in the business, I know things will be running smoothly while I’m spending time with bubba. 

Second Trimester Challenges

Of course, it hasn't all been smooth sailing. Our virtual assistant handed in her resignation recently and I’m very excited for her as she steps into her own business, but it certainly threw a spanner in the works. There is a part of me that wants to hold on tight to control every outcome, but life and business don’t work like that! This has been a beautiful reminder to flow with the seasons, let go and trust that everything will fall into place, even when it feels uncertain. 

Preparing for a Big Change

It’s been exciting to prepare for bubba’s arrival, getting everything organised on the home front and also being really intentional about preparing the business for my maternity leave. I made a really purposeful decision last year to cut down my income and scale back, knowing that I wouldn’t be able to continue in the same capacity. This decision has felt really great, but my challenge now is to stay present in what is required of me now and not go into the future tripping. 

The big transition I’m facing in my life is bringing my first baby into the world, but maybe you’re feeling a quantum leap in another area of life or business. No matter what challenge or uplevel you’re facing, I hope you feel encouraged to lean into the duality of embracing the unknown and doing everything you need to feel supported in the way you need right now.
