This might as well be Katie's life motto. When liv This might as well be Katie's life motto. When living with her parents during an extended period at the beginning of the pandemic she wrote out an SOP for cohabitating. That's how much she doesn't enjoy trying to read people's minds. ⁠
🍓⁠
"Asking" is not a four letter word, but many people have been raised to believe it is. ⁠
🍓⁠
What would be different in your business or your life if you asked for something instead of expecting it?⁠

It's almost June, which means in 5ish weeks, half It's almost June, which means in 5ish weeks, half the year is gone. (Hello, WHAT?)⁠
Instead of lots of "how to" tips this week, we're sharing quotes, sayings, and info that shaped our thinking so far in 2022. ⁠
🌱⁠
This entire quote is, "The truth has legs; it always stands. When everything else in the room has blown up or dissolved away, the only thing left standing will always be the truth. Since that’s where you’re gonna end up anyway, you might as well just start there.” ⁠
🌱⁠
If I (Katie) were to choose one quote to sum up the first part of the year, it's this one. Does it resonate with you? What would you do differently if you started from what you know to be true about your business our yourself? ⁠

It's so easy, as business owners, to just try to m It's so easy, as business owners, to just try to make it to the end of the day, the end of the week, the end of the month, the end of the year, the next project launch, the next conference. ⁠
⁠
That's not enough, though. ⁠
⁠
One of Katie's favorite quotes is "Survival is insufficient." It's from Star Trek Voyager S6E2, but is also famous for being the epigraph in Emily St. John Mandel, book "Station Eleven." The Traveling Symphony, the performing group the book centers around, adopts it as their motto in a post apocalyptic world. ⁠
⁠
Survival is insufficient. ⁠

Art, beauty, movement are necessary, too. 

We challenge readers and followers to think about how we can lift up ourselves and others in moving from surviving to thriving. 

⁠
Are you great at starting projects but have a roug Are you great at starting projects but have a rough time finishing? Maybe you're afraid to hit "send" on that marketing email. Perhaps you can write content all day, but when it comes to MailChimp, you're stuck. Maybe you have your website copy and pictures pulled together but don't know what to do next. Maybe your website is built, but you don't know which words to use.⁠
⁠
We can help! ⁠

Grab a call spot & we'll chat with you about "Last Mile Services," a.k.a. getting your project across the finish line. ⁠
