Excuses aren’t good. But priorities are totally understandable 🫶🏼 They can shift and that’s okay! Sometimes they have to. You’re doing amazing, Monica and the community you’ve built of small business peeps is beautiful to see 🥰
Thank you so much for this video! After listening to you motivating yourself, I finally took a plunge and ordered samples of my own stationery with my own artwork! I wouldn’t have done that as was thinking maybe be one day when I am more serious. Keep making videos, they are motivational to others !
I appreciate you making this video regarding your small business as REAL/SERIOUS or a SUCCESSFUL It’s a reminder of mine own small business. I’m going to implement the steps and bring my thoughts forward. YOU GO GIRL! I see a small storefront in your future much success. I mean it😊
Monica!! This video is gold! I love this content. It is so relatable to all of us that work full time and are trying to grow a handmade business! Thank you for being so encouraging and REAL! I loved the - hey it’s been two weeks or a month and I am getting back up and taking more steps. I hope you do more do like this. I feel seen, heard and encouraged! I hope this video kicks ass for you as it should!! ❤
Hello Monica, thank you for showing your hand-made items. I love listening to you for a better small business and daily routine. I have been a small business since 2022. It hasn't been easy, but I am happy. I just made an order. Keep going for us. From Florida
I rarely comment on videos, but I just have to say I’m so thankful this came across my feed! I needed to hear ALL of this to really confirm my idea of starting my own small business! You are amazing and I LOVE your shop! I’m sure I’ll be a future customer when I can afford to be! 🥰🥰🥰
I love watching your videos, and I am so happy to see your posting more here on youtube even on Instagram, I see you more than before . Hard work pays. I am a small business owner myself and you inspire me to work hard and not to give up even when everything around me makes me procrastinate 🤪 Keep up the good work. and I wish you all the success and happiness
Just an idea. Maybe offer the current length of shorts along with a shorter version. Some have more junk in the trunk, and a shorter length turns into cheek chillers. Plus, us older gals usually look better in the length you currently have on😉. I do realize that the 50+ may not be your demographic, but I love your channel and the inspiration and motivation you put out into the universe. Sending you positive vibes, and may your business be blessed!
I love following your journey Monica! It’s so easy to procrastinate especially when things don’t go right. I’m 52 and starting my journey to be a full time artist and RUclips channel and it can be hard to keep going sometimes and also get over analysis paralysis! Especially when you have a million ideas! 😂 Wishing you much success, you’ve got this! ❤️
Hi monica, i think it very timely that you’re talking about self doubt cos i def go through it too! But one think that always works for me to get “motivated” is watching small business owners, and you’re definitely at the top of my list!
Such a great reminder!! This is where I am with my small business as well. I am going through a redo process and these tips you shared are sure to help. Congratulations on your success!!
Girlll I can not say how much I relate to you in the beginning of this 😭 it’s so hard to find the time to fully commit and it’s hard to think that if I had all day to work on my business it could be something so great 😭😭
Eucalyptus E/O really sells during winter and spring. During Christmas and Allergic Seasons. I make coconut soy blend candles and cold process soap, and these are well sold during these times in Florida.
Was I getting emotional during this time 12:35. Yes. Literally was journaling about my business and things I could be doing and how I feel and what my ideal days would look like, then this was the first video I saw on when I came on YT. Needed it
hey Monica! just subscribed to your channel and love your videos! I was just wondering, do you have a full time or part time job aside from your small business or does it allow you to support yourself fully? just wondering as i have a full time 9-5 and also want to start a small business and wondering how i’d manage all of it ☺️
Hey girlie thanks for being here! I work a 9-5 corporate job and fully support myself! I'm filming a time management video soon to show you all how I get it all done:)
@@monicarazak this is so helpful tysm!! i just started my YT channel as well as working on starting a small business with a 9-5 corporate job so this is very inspiring, can’t wait to see more of your content!
A good business owner knows everything about their business in order to run it smoothly and answer all questions for their customers, so no….she’s not overthinking anything.
