A Few Words on GROWING | Michelle Gardella Photography
July 29, 2010
I can still vividly remember the nights Braedon would wake up crying, pointing to his legs, wondering “What is going on?!” Growing pains; and the only thing that helped was a warm bath, a bucket of snuggles and softly singing him back into Dreamland.
As my business is expanding and evolving, I feel myself squirming and wincing sometimes. It is definitely not all sunshine and unicorns. I get scared. I get impatient. I compare and contrast myself to the thousands of other photographers out there. I freak out.
I think it’s important to share this. I think it’s completely crucial to be honest about the challenges of becoming Fabulous- how else will we ever be able to know what is going on and then dance right on by? Like my sweet son pointing to his pain completely confused, the tricky parts of evolving ourselves can be baffling and super confusing sometimes.
And this is why I am spending so many hours perfecting my Online Workshops. There are three of them. They are crazy fantastic. And they are completely unique and beautifully down-to-Earth and affordable and and andddd!!!
Because I get it. Growing up and realizing your dreams is super, insanely, ridiculously challenging sometimes. For now, take a hot bath, snuggle up in a favorite blanket and listen to your favorite song.
Fabulousness is coming. Soon.
