I Blame the Moon for This Week’s Intense Letter ??
I’m about to turn 43, a number I really don’t like, but thats another story.
Weirdly its also my 43rd edition here on LinkedIn, Hmmmm interesting.
Anyhow, I wasn’t sure I had the courage to write this, and yet, here I am.
Truth Time: I couldn’t show up on Monday.
Not for a meeting I had set up, nor for my business.
Honestly, not for anything that day, including being a mom and a wife.
I just wanted to collapse into a tearful heap, overwhelmed by frustration and disillusionment, all at once.

"Creation is such an interesting phenomenon. The process is riddled with a landscape of peaks and valleys with indeterminate views. There are moments when we feel truly inspired and uplifted because we have made some progress in climbing to a new level to see a better view.
"In the next moment, when we see that there are bigger obstacles to overcome, we wonder if we even made a difference and if our efforts were really worth it. Like the birthing process, creation comes with labor pains…"
He is so right, I have been in this very creative phase of building with all things GenAI and NoCode.
I've put so much time and energy into this, though the results just haven't quite matched that effort, and honestly it hurts.
Of course, I’ve seen changes in my skills and confidence.
I am grateful, though exhausted ??, with bills that still need paying!
As we all know the currency of life is money, moola, bucks, cash (sadly)
