I’ve been reading and hearing a lot, lately, about the need to be open to change, re-adjust, re-do, etc., as many times as needed in order to land in the perfect place- whether that place is your home, yourself, your business or whatever else you might be creating, building or improving upon. Sometimes things must fall apart a little in order make space for new possibilities. Sometimes that process of mutation will never really end, if your end goal is to create something of lasting value.
This is good news for me! I’m definitely one who thrives on mixing things up, trying things out, changing my mind, and starting over. It’s all a process of transformation to finally land where I'm meant to be.
Since I’ve been closer to getting this home studio up and running, I’m feeling like it’s time to re-brand and re-evaluate what I’d like to offer, how I’d like to offer it and when I’d like to offer it. The first step in this re-evaluation was setting up the temporary studio space as if it were permanent, as we wait patiently for construction to begin. The second thing my husband and I re-evaluated was my desire to have a mobile studio and shop for the art side of my business. That desire is still there, and will happen, but I had to be honest with myself about the time I currently have available. The answer is- not much! I also had to be honest with myself about my ability and desire to drive this huge vehicle myself. The answer is- it scares the hell out of me! I also had to admit that if I wanted it to move, my husband would have to do it. I’m not about to put anything else on his plate, so we made the decision to sell it and wait patiently for a smaller, easier to handle vehicle to serve as my mobile shop.
It makes me really sad to let this place go. I get really attached to my homes- even this one on wheels! It was truly an adventure living here for four months. Looking back on it, it’s hard for us to believe we actually did that!
Do you have a “re-evaluate” or “re-do” story? I’m pretty sure, after this past year, a lot of you are in that boat with me, right?! I’d love to hear about your process and how it’s going for you!
If one of your end-goals is your own home on wheels, this is a good one! And if you know of a smaller living/working space on wheels, let me know 🤗.
Stay tuned for re-branding info. As usual, my wheels are turning!
Have a great holiday weekend!
Be Still. Be Strong. Be Happy. - Juli
P.S. if you would like to see the RV, we will have it open this weekend, during the Weekend of Blues at Blumenhof.🤗
