Burning Out: Reigniting the Flame of Entreprenuership (Part 2)

Burning Out: Reigniting the Flame of Entreprenuership (Part 2)

August 25, 2023

Author: Akiba Bradford


When I took a leap of faith into entrepreneurship, I sought to bring an all-in-one relaxation experience to my customers through my love of candle and soap making. In my last blog post, I discussed how juggling multiple roles, chasing success, and lacking work-life balance led me to burn out. This blog post will discuss how I am reigniting the flame of entrepreneurship to further my mission to bring relaxation into your homes.


Reigniting the Flame

Burn out zapped my creativity. However, taking a much needed break has inspired me to create again. Over the summer, I identified new soap methods, acquired great ideas from candle and soap makers and learn tips and tricks for social media marketing. By becoming a student of the craft again, I gathered the kindling needed to reignite the flame of entrepreneurship. To not undermine my capacity as a bosslady, I will take advice from a previous blog post entitled Why is Self-Care Important? 5 Tips for Your Mind, Body and Soul and create a self-care routine. As a result of implementing a self-care plan, I will boost my mood, increase my energy levels, and cultivate a more balanced and fulfilling life. By slowly tending my passion of entreprenuership, I’ll be able to bring warmth, relaxation and healing to all LHC customers.
