I had a conversation with a close friend recently about thinking back to a moment in your past when you were the happiest and what that looked like? What did you feel like? Where were you at? I couldn’t pinpoint one on the spot but thought about it repeatedly from then on.
It was this day. August 2017 and I had just completed my very first photo shoot to launch Heather Lane Events. I love this picture 💜 It sparks dozens of emotions, most prominent being happiness and gratitude. It’s been nearly 5 years from this moment.
• Five years after DARING MYSELF to launch a business.
• Five years of events, weddings, consulting and freelancing.
• Five years of believing in my expertise, my worth, my experience and what I have to offer to my clients.
•Five years of creative freedom to plan, create, cultivate and execute as I see fit.
•Five years of working alongside talented and inspiring entrepreneurs, many of which have turned into lifelong friends.
On this day I felt:
EMPOWERED
CREATIVE
HOPEFUL
THRILLED
BEAUTIFUL
To anyone that needed to hear this. Forever continue to seek your purpose. It may change over the years, it may evolve into something else entirely. I am still not convinced this is my end all and THAT ALONE EXCITES ME. What is next? What direction will I go? There are sooo many directions & paths I could take. WHAT IS MEANT FOR ME WILL BE MINE. And that’s on repeat 24/7, 365.
Never lose sight of what lights you up. ⚡️Chase it. 🐆 And most importantly always remember that YOU are your ONLY competition. Strive each day to be your best self possible. Life is too dang short to do anything else. 💜💜💜
