Trying My Hand at Entrepreneurship
If there’s one thing I’ve learned recently, it’s that trying to step out on your own takes a different kind of courage. After months of job hunting, rejection emails, and endless waiting, I started wondering—what if the opportunity I’m waiting for is one I have to create for myself?
That’s when I decided to try my hand at something new: entrepreneurship. Not the grand, flashy kind you see all over Instagram, but something small and quiet that starts right at my kitchen table. Crafting has become a calm in the chaos for me. A moment of peace in between school runs and toddler tantrums. And lately, I’ve been turning that peace into purpose by creating custom items to sell.
But wow—trying to find a niche when it feels like everyone is doing the same thing? That’s a whole challenge in itself. Etsy, TikTok shops, Instagram boutiques—they’re all bursting at the seams. It’s easy to wonder, “Is there even room for me?” I keep telling myself that what makes anything stand out is the heart behind it. My story, my why. And I know there’s someone out there who’ll connect with that.
The truth is, I’m still not sure I’m ready to put my face out there. Sharing my journey publicly feels a little too raw right now. But for now, my hands will speak for me. Through every design, every stitched detail, every item I send out—I’m creating something with love and hope.
✨ Reflection
If you’re thinking about starting something new, but fear you won’t stand out—remember, there’s only one you. That’s your niche. Your voice, your perspective, your story. Let it shine, even if it starts quietly.
🌸 Affirmation
I may not have it all figured out, but I’m brave enough to begin.
