Today is the end of Brevity, and the beginning of something new.
But, before I let you know what I’ll be up to next, I want to share how I got here.
Curiosity has been the key driving force behind my journey so far.
Before I started Brevity, I read inspiring founder stories, and each story would make me increasingly more curious about the entrepreneurial path.
I was curious about what exactly went into taking a business from idea to launch, and I wanted to experience it first-hand.
So when I got the idea for the Do Anything Jacket, curiosity propelled me to take the leap, despite how terrified I was.
However, after the initial leap, I continued to encounter fear again, and again. Oftentimes, the fear would show up as self-doubt, then turn into perfectionism, and ultimately result in procrastination.
Curious about why, I delved deep into research about mindset and habits, and embarked on an unexpected personal growth journey.
Along the way, I learned reconnected with my strengths and am returning to my roots as a publicist and brand strategist with renewed vigor and a fresh perspective.
While curiosity has taken me on a windy path, it's given me the opportunity to broaden my experiences and meet incredible people.
Thank you for being part of the Brevity chapter, and embarking on whatever this next chapter unfolds with me.
