WELCOME TO THE INSIDE OF ME BRAIN... THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO OFF SWITCH. ๐Ÿคฃ
Right... pull up a chair... Grab a cuppa... a beer... ya dog... whatever ๐Ÿ˜ Sooooo... I've been doing a LOT of thinking lately. Dangerous, I know ๐Ÿคฃ. Me brain doesn't exactly come with an ๐—ข๐—™๐—™ ๐—ฆ๐—ช๐—œ๐—ง๐—–๐—› at the best of times... and lying on me arse with a dodgy back for the last couple of weeks has given it FAR too much opportunity to chat absolute SHITE. Honestly... I think I solved about seventeen world problems... rearranged me whole bloody house in me head... started about six new businesses... retired twice... rescued another puppy in my imagination... then somehow ended up wondering if plants get lonely ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ. It's a lot in here... and if you've found this page... welcome to the chaos ๐Ÿ˜ Thing is... somewhere along the way I'd kinda split myself up. There was Business Mimi over here... Yoga Mimi over there... Bali popping up somewhere else... Nami stealing the show every five bloody minutes because... well... have ya SEEN her cute af ... then random thoughts... random stories... plants... humans... the occasional rant... the occasional cry... and the occasional "what the ACTUAL FCK just happened?" moment. It all lived in different places and if I'm honest... I couldn't be arsed anymore. That's not real life is it? I don't wake up and decide... "Today I'm ONLY gonna be business Mimi." FCK DAT. I'm ALL of it... every single messy bitโ€ฆ So I thought... sod it. Why am I trying so hard to squeeze meself into one neat little box when I couldn't fit in one if ya paid me This Skoolpage has become me PUBLIC little front room. No joining. No paying. No secret handshake. No fake guru bollocks. Just somewhere ya can pull up a chair... have a nosey... laugh with me... laugh AT me... tell me I'm chatting out me arse... show me ya dog... tell me what ya had for tea... whatever ๐Ÿ˜. ๐—œ ๐˜๐—ผ๐˜๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ป'๐˜ ๐—ฐ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐˜€๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜๐˜€ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต... ๐—œ ๐—ท๐˜‚๐˜€๐˜ ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ฑ๐˜† ๐—น๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—ถ๐˜ ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐˜๐˜€โ€ฆ DOGS. Humans. Bali. Business. Plants. The funny stuff... the hard stuff... the messy stuff... the wins... the wobbles... the stuff that makes me belly laugh... the stuff that makes me wanna launch me phone into the bloody rice fields. ALL of it belongs here. And d'ya know what's funny... this was all a bit of an experiment. I decided to stop spreading myself across seventeen different socials and just chuck ALL of me into one place and see what happened. OOOOFFF... turns out people don't actually want polished. They don't want perfect.

WHY THE EFF DOES CUTTING MY HAIR GIVE ME ANXIETY?!
So you know this whole 80s trend thingy that's been flying around every-fricken-where? Well yes I did one of those pictures of myself and I have to sayโ€ฆ it looks pretty bloody much like meโ€ฆ. maybe I'm a little bit skinnier, maybe my skin is a little tad smoother, but honestly, it's not miles off I reckon. And I REALLY liked the hair. Like really really likeโ€ฆ A few friends actually said to me, โ€œHey, you should do that with your hair! Put a few layers in it because yours would easily go like that.โ€ And they're right. It WOULD totesโ€ฆ BUTโ€ฆ the thought of cutting my hair gives me this really weird, quite severe gulp fck anxiety in my chest. Like this HUGE feeling of ๐—ก๐—ข๐—ฃ๐—˜. ๐——๐—ข๐—ก'๐—ง ๐—ง๐—ข๐—จ๐—–๐—› ๐—ง๐—›๐—˜ ๐—›๐—”๐—œ๐—ฅ. And it got me thinking like I do a damn lotโ€ฆ WHY FFS?! Because it's only hair, isn't it? You can cut it, it grows back, you can change it, you can put layers in it, colour it, do whatever the fuck you want with it. And the funny thing isโ€ฆ I WOULD LOVE TO. I actually think it looks fucking cool. Iโ€™m kinda tempted. But there is just something in me this lice niggle that is saying NOPE ๐—”๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—œ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ธ ๐—œ'๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐˜๐˜‚๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐˜† ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ด๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ ๐˜„๐—ต๐˜†โ€ฆ I haven't cut my hair or dyed it or put chemicals on it for probably 7 or 8 years now. I literally just let my hair BE HAIR. And that might sound like the most woo woo insignificant thing in the world, but for me it actually represents something much bigger Because for MANY years I chopped and changed it. This hairstyle, that hairstyle, this colour, that colour, shorter, longer, layers, no layers, lighter, darkerโ€ฆ whatever. I was always changing something. And then at some point I just thought, ENOUGH I don't want to do that anymore. I wanted to see what happened if I stopped trying to make my hair into something else and actually just accepted it exactly as it was And honestly? My hair has never been healthier. It's thick, it's strong, it's healthy and I get loads of compliments on it, although that's completely irrelevant because that's not WHY I do it. I think I just gave it the space to be what it actually is, instead of constantly interfering with it and trying to turn it into something different

WHY THE EFF DOES CUTTING MY HAIR GIVE ME ANXIETY?!
WHEN IT FEEL LIKE THINGS ARE FALLING APARTโ€ฆBUT MAYBE THIS IS THE REALITY I HAVE BEEN CRAVINGโ€ฆ.
So that offer I put out the other day? Did nowt. Nothing. Naff allโ€ฆand if I'm being totally honest wiv u, which yup I always am in hereโ€ฆ I'm tired AF. I'm proper fed up down in the dumps of putting offers out there that just don't go anywhere anymore. I don't think I've got the energy left to keep trying, that's the truth of itโ€ฆ (fck this is hard writing this) I've gone from having the BEST year ever, totes the best in my years building a business, to having an absolutely shite one where hardly anything I put out sells, here's the mad bit, I haven't really changed. I've kept up with the times, I know I know my shitโ€ฆ (I know I am fcking good epic at what I do) Iโ€™ve asked people what they want, what they need, they TELL meโ€ฆ yet then they still don't pay for it (no judgment of the people btw) It's not about competition, the market is saturated etc. It's not even about me I don't think, thinking out loud here. It's justโ€ฆ summat's shifted n I can't seem to shift with it sadly anymoreโ€ฆ So am I giving up? Am I chucking in the towel? Coz that's honestly where me head's been at a lot lately..it sucks I've made a decision an all. THE BACKROOM, my Skool pro community, I've been paying $99 a month for nearly THREE yearsโ€ฆ I've had to sit myself down n go, Mimi, that's not worth it anymore, stop avoiding it. So I'm dropping it down to the $9 hobby one. I've got to be realistic about me future finances. Yeah there's still money coming in but it's nowhere near as much, it's not keeping me in the life I've had these last few years, and the savings? The savings have literally dissipated. Gone. ๐—ฆ๐—ผ ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—บ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜'๐˜€ ๐—ด๐—ผ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ผ ๐—ฐ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ฒโ€ฆ I've started looking at random jobs online. Justโ€ฆ anything. That's where I am at right now. Three years I've put into this business model n it's just not recurring on any kind of reacurring scale that sustains me like it once did. I know I'm not alone, so many people speak to are burnt out, overwhelmed, stressed, worriedโ€ฆ me included. I'm right there in the boat with u, I'm not pretending otherwiseโ€ฆ.

WHAT A WEEKโ€ฆ N NOT ALL IN A GOOD WAYโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜ข How can one week start off feeling like ur on an all time high, like summat fckin awesome's about to happenโ€ฆ to then have some of the shittest moments ever?

I'm not even gonna name the things that happened, but some real shite shows went down, if I'm honest which like duh I am they totally impacted my mental health. I could feel it instantly I was spiraling. I could feel the anxiety in my chest, the panic attacks incoming, and the stress building n leaking into me bodyโ€ฆ So this morning I made a pact wiv myself that I really need to focus on me health, physical n mental. I am ok. If anybody's even reading this it's fine, for me it it was just a huge ass sign to myself really, to say hey, u gotta not fully focus on the stuff that's pulling u down and focus back on urself. So I had all these lovely good intentions didn't I. Woke up early after an early night, got on me yoga mat. Well, I don't actually have a yoga mat, I AM the mat Got back into me Ashtanga, not the full thing by the way, itโ€™s gonna take while to get back into it all. Did a mini meditation. Made a coffee. All going lovely jubbly ๐—ง๐—›๐—˜๐—ก ๐—œ ๐—ด๐—ผ๐˜ ๐—บ๐—ฒ ๐—ท๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ป๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜โ€ฆ n there was literally a whole ANTS NEST in it (jungle life) coz, full transparency, I've not journaled since August 16th, couple of weeks, slap me hand, bcoz I KNOW how epic it is for me. So then I'm having to sort the ants nest, then check all the other books in the basket where I keep em in case they've moved in there an all, n in the middle of THAT I had to rescue a whole ass TOAD ( I love toads btwโ€ฆhis name is Thomas) that was living in there. (Doe this mean something is it a sign hmmmm) So then I think, right, I'll read a book to calm down. Course I got distracted, well because everything going on my mind wont stop. Then I go for me morning toilet like u do (we all do hey letโ€™s not pretend you are some princess that doesnโ€™t pee) I flush the chainโ€ฆ ๐—ป ๐—ช๐—›๐—”๐—ง ๐—ง๐—›๐—˜ ๐—”๐—–๐—ง๐—จ๐—”๐—Ÿ ๐—™๐—–๐—ž.
