Sometimes I think people forget how much happens behind a small business page.
The photos. The creating. The posting. Replying to messages. Packing orders. Thinking of ideas at odd hours. Trying to stay present online while also balancing work, life, responsibilities, and everything in between.
But if Iâm being really honest, True North Naturals was never created to become something I felt pressure to constantly keep up with. It actually started as a way for me to slow down. A quiet, meditative practice rooted in creativity and my love of essential oils.
Over time it became bracelets, intentions, meaningful pieces, and a space to create something with my hands. Itâs never been my number one gig, but it has always been something that means a lot to me.
So lately Iâve been reminding myself that itâs okay if I donât keep up all the time. Itâs okay if growth looks slower. Itâs okay if there are seasons of creating and seasons of rest.
At the end of the day, small businesses are built by real people and sometimes the most important thing is protecting the reason you started in the first place.
And if youâve supported True North Naturals in any way, thank you đ¤ It never goes unnoticed.
