Seeing people copy my work lit a fire under me
from The Elle Diaries · host Elle Beecher Hogan
I'm sharing something that normally I would keep to myself - how seeing other people start walks inspired by The Board Walks actually pissed me off... and how that anger became the exact motivation I needed to finally expand my mission.I'll be real with you. For 3 years, I've been holding back on bringing The Board Walks to more cities because I was scared.Scared of managing that much energy, scared of the bigness of the vision I received back in July 2022. But last Saturday, the universe served me a cosmic wake-up call when I saw multiple people launching their own versions of what I created.Instead of staying in frustration, I channeled that energy into action. I emailed 40+ people who had applied to host chapters, I'm working with an incredible designer (and OG Walk regular) on our brand identity, and I'm launching The Board podcast. My goal? 10 cities minimum by the end of 2025.This episode is about recognizing when your anger at others is really anger at yourself for not moving fast enough on your dreams. It's about honoring the bigness of your vision even when it feels overwhelming. And it's about trusting that you've been prepared for exactly what you're being called to do.If you've been sitting on a big vision or holding yourself back from expanding something you've created, this one's for you. Sometimes we need that cosmic kick in the pants to remind us we're ready for more.Sending you so much love and the courage to step into your bigness.xoxo, ElleP.S.
