Business Owner Gains Mental Clarity to Scale Her Company and Improve Parenting

I am Michelle Amacker and I'm from Boulder, Colorado. I think this week the biggest shift that I've noticed or thought through is, just kind of, not taking life so seriously. Maybe just appreciating life as it comes and not getting too hung up on the small things. My biggest takeaway is that I'm on the right path, I'm doing the right things and just kind of trust the process and don't overthink things. I plan to show up differently for my kids. So, to try to be more present with them and patient with my son particularly. I had some challenges with him at the beginning of the week. So I plan to kind of foster that relationship. I plan to take time for myself with my nutrition and exercise. To prioritize that because it's been put on the back burner for a while, so it's a priority for me to do that. And then also just to kind of organize my day so that I don't have quite as many, like, distractions and I can kind of operate in flow for my work. I think I'm most excited about just the energy that I've gotten from this week. Not mentally because I'm mentally fried right now. Just kind of like, the tools that I've learned and I was telling them in our debrief just now that it's almost like you pulled all the weeds out of the garden and you could finally see the flowers. That's been really enlightening for me. Yeah, you know, I think I was a little bit stuck before. And, kind of, every aspect that I worked on this week. So, like, stuck with work in a place where I wasn't really sure. I own a business so it's like, do I sell the business? Do I grow the business? Like, is it taking too much of my time? Am I giving it enough time? And that's kind of a, really, like a back and forth battle I was in. And then kind of the same thing, being stuck with parenting. And I don't know what I'm gonna do with my 3 year old. Is he gonna be a sociopath, I'm not sure. What do I do to help bring him in and show him love and mercy? And then in my personal life, I need to start looking at my diet and nutrition. I don't have time to work out or to fit movement in my lifestyle right now and I didn't really know how to piece it together, so those are kind of the three pieces. So my life is not that, it's the opposite of all of that. That's where I was before and so now my life looks like, flowing through my day at work and making good decisions. I have kind of made a decision here, to grow the business and sell it later. So I want to focus some attention and energy on that. Being present with my son. And I've learned some tools just this process of how to help kind of prevent some of the things that he was going through. But also to deal with it and just kind of bring a good energy to the situation. And then on the personal life as well... you make time for the things that are important to you.
