Hard Moments Don’t Last Forever

🌸 Inspiration Corner

"This too shall pass." – Unknown

I whisper this phrase to myself during tough seasons—when my schedule is chaotic, when a deal falls through, or when I feel like I’m drowning in self-doubt. There’s comfort in knowing that no storm is permanent. Whether you’re stuck in a creative rut or just feeling emotionally worn out, remember this: nothing stays the same forever.

Even the longest, heaviest days will eventually lighten. We forget that life constantly shifts, like waves. So when things feel unbearable, I remind myself that this moment is temporary. Change is always on the horizon, even if I can’t see it yet.



🧘‍ Mindful Living Tip

Anchor Yourself in the Present

When anxiety shows up, it often brings the past or the future with it. But the present? That’s where calm lives. Next time you're overwhelmed, try this: look around and name 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste. It’s called grounding, and it gently brings you back to now.

Doing this isn’t magic—but it is powerful. You shift from spiraling thoughts to steady awareness. And sometimes, that’s all you need to get through what’s heavy until it passes.



💭 Reader's Corner

Sometimes the smallest moments hold the deepest wisdom. Here are three stories from women business owners who leaned into presence and patience when they needed it most.

“During the pandemic, I lost nearly half my clients in two months. I was panicking and ready to give up. But I kept a sticky note on my laptop that said ‘this too shall pass.’ And it did. Clients returned, and I came back stronger.” – Angelica, Social Media Manager

“I went through a tough breakup right as I was launching a new product. I almost canceled everything. Instead, I leaned into mindfulness and told myself, ‘Feel the pain, but don’t pitch a tent in it.’ My launch wasn’t perfect, but it was mine—and it succeeded.” – Renee, Candle Shop Owner

“There was a time I was so burnt out, I couldn’t even open my laptop. Instead of pushing harder, I took a breath and gave myself a week to pause. That space helped me remember why I started this business. Now I build rest into my schedule on purpose.” – Carla, Web Developer
