Friday: Learning to move away from that scarcity mindset

This morning, I was texting with a close friend, and we were discussing the scarcity mindset. Basically, and I think this is something any freelancer or self-employed person in any field can relate to, our work goes through periods that we are juggling a million deadlines. We're swamped. And then we hit that one day we're all caught up and we have nothing that needs to be done immediately.
Happy Friday- I can TOTALLY relate to this...unless I feel like I'm drowning I don't feel like I'm working hard enough. So glad to know I'm not the only one...And I also totally binge watch shows while folding laundry bc I HAVE to be doing SOMETHING ;) Have a wonderful, restorative & much-deserved weekend <3
Happy Friday! Enjoy your hard-earned afternoon of relaxation : ) Scarcity mindset is SO real and it truly does take conscious effort (and/or a great friend) to pause and try to reframe when I catch myself in that spiral.

I love this. I envision you as one of the most prolific journalists around, and it’s nice to know that work ebbs and flows for you as well.
This is so true. I'm sure there are so many that feel the same way!
