I'm Okay With It, I'm Okay Without It
Daffnee takes us back to her rock bottom: a stretch this year where she was so consumed by her business that she'd drafted her resignation and updated her resume, despite fifteen years of building the thing herself. What pulled her out was a mantra she now repeats every day, and it completely...
