Only Scratching the Surface Here

Truth is, I've spent an entire lifetime wtih one foot in and one foot out. Things would get rough and I am out of the door. I am definitely one of those people who is really good at a lot of things but kind of gets lost when it comes to determining what it is that I truly LIKE. If you havn't figured it out yet, this first blog post may or may not be about spices, but more so about me coming to the realization I am literally only scratching the surface.

I could spend days, no, YEARS, explaining why I am not where I would like to be with this business, but I can far better sum it up in one word. Fear. Fear of failure, judgement, being seen, losing, losing money, feeling dumb, looking dumb, all of that. And to avoid all of that I played small. So damn small that I convinced myself that I didn't want to do this anymore. Well... thank God for an amazing circle of humans around me who wouldn't let that happen.

Even though I didn't wholly throw this business in the trash, I also didn't give it my all. I pushed a liiiiitle harder, but not too much. Still not that much more effort was put forth, and of course, the results reflected. While I think I am doing ok, mind you, I've still got a full time job, getting my PLE's done to reinstate my real estate license(I am a Capricorn and we want ALL the coin) I'm thinking that squeaking out just a little SpiceShip time in the evening is enough.

It. Is. Not.

Prepping for farmer's markets and other vendor event's take about a day to prepare, but I wasn't doing the advertising. I wasn't reaching out to my audience. I wasn't even attempting to grow my list or nurturing the one that I'd worked really hard to build so many years ago. I'm not going to turn this into a thing but to make a long story short, I'm here, with my family, with our blends, ground fresh, and I am giving it all I've got this time.

I've got blends coming, subscription boxes, seasonal boxes, events and a few more tricks up my sleeve that I'm acting on this last quarter and I intend on finishing strong.

This is the very first blog post on this page, and the only one of this kind. Everthing else is going to be planned and categorized. So if you to
