I get “this is just for a year, right?” But this one is on me— I’ve shared this is my one year experiment to figure out the next thing. It’s true, based on the numbers and my plan. But deep inside, I hope, wish, dream this doing-my-own-thing will work out for good, forever. Thanks for asking the question— I don’t think I’ve said that out loud before. Maybe this is the start of manifestation!

This is a really interesting point actually! I think sometimes people are asking ‘did the risky thing work out?’ Rather than actually wanting the numbers or ins and outs of the work. I usually stick to ‘pretty good but wouldn’t mind an extra client or two!’ and move on

Hahaha relatable. I just say “it’s good, it’s good” and one blurb about a project and leave it be 😆

Yes this! this is me most of the time. I used to put so much value in wanting to hear what people think, and now I just say 'good,' and move on 🤣

Don’t need the Asian comparison to be on our backs 🤣
