Giving Myself Permission to Pause: Podcast and Offers Update, Moving, and Redefining Success I Ep 188

from Shine and Thrive Photography Podcast · host Sara Monika

"This felt hard to do, but my soul feels nourished and free!" - SaraSara records a voice note while waiting to pick up Ben and announces she’s pausing the education side of her business, including the podcast, and will not relaunch Outsourcing Made Easy (OME) with group coaching calls this fall after running it each y for 6 years. She explains the shift is about honoring her evolving self, and she’ll accept education opportunities like mentoring or VIP days case-by-case; the OME course-only library and Facebook community will remain available. She shares a major personal season of uncertainty involving selling their house, losing their 16-year-old dog Abby in December, and eventually finding a better home with a river in the backyard, which contributed to her need for spaciousness. She encourages listeners to accept ebbs and flows, practice self-compassion, and design a business to meet personal needs rather than chase constant growth.Timestamps00:00 Car Voice Note Intro01:49 Big Business Pause02:55 Why OME Is On Hold05:48 What Still Available08:50 House Hunt And Loss13:20 Ebb Flow Lessons17:31 Self Compassion Reset23:14 Design For Your Needs26:29 Stay Connected OutroResources- To inquire about Outsourcing Made Easy or 1:1 mentoring, inquire directly with Sara on IG @saramonikaphoto or her email [email protected] Intuitive Wedding Storytelling self-paced course- Crystal Clear Marketing self-paced mini course
