Hopping on this silly little trend!!!
yap time 🙂
It’s so easy to fall into the day-to-day and forget to pause & acknowledge how far you’ve come. And it’s even easier to constantly critique yourself and think about how you can be doing mooore… (If you know me, you know I have a new idea every day. very seldom do they come to fruition 🤣)
I took this picture when I was still living at home, about 2 months before moving to OC without much of a plan. It’s now been over 3 years (!?!) of owning Born Good, and I’m pretty f*ckin’ proud that I stopped doubting myself and now I get to help the coolest people and their dogs live their best lives together. In a rad little town, too!
My life has always revolved around dogs ~
volunteering at my local vet as a 12 year old, working in dog daycare/boarding facilities, shadowing “purely positive” trainers then having my eyes opened to how amazing balanced dog training is, interning at the MD SPCA, walking dogs in the summers to fund living in Costa Rica in winters in my early 20s ~
but for some reason being my own boss and being successfully self-employed just always seemed like something that was out of reach for myself.
My advice to any 20something who’s feeling stuck or unhappy - take the risk, move to a different country, start your own side gig, quit your job that you don’t like!!! Lol (don’t take advice from me)
If you’ve read my yap for this long - thanks for being here & thanks for supporting your weird dog friend 🫶🤸🏼♀️🐾🙂💌
