This is the shit I live for. How we’re all brilliant minds in our own ways. I la la looove hearing about how other people’s minds work.
YOURS is fascinating, Ricardo!!
Dre BeltramiKeymasterI’m really curious why you hate podcasts + audiobooks?
Dre BeltramiKeymasterI love that!! It’s so true isn’t it? The craziest thing is I kinda think I’m a writer but there’s still a lot of mindfucks around calling myself a writer because I was told I was such a bad writer when I was growing up.
Dre BeltramiKeymasterYESSS! Revisit away. I’m glad you’re marinating on it. I love your version of confidence… especially the black leather (rrrraaawwwwrrr!!)
It’s fucking CRAZY how long we let our trauma squat in our spirit, isn’t it? The things I’m only NOW realizing (in my 40’s) are borderline sad… but I’m not mad at it… and that’s how I know I’ve made so much fucking progress already.
Keep doing the work you’re doing to believe in yourself, sweetie. YOU ARE WORTH IT.
P.S. Oh how I wish I had the mouth I have now with the bullies back then. It doesn’t matter how long it’s been, the trauma is real. 🤗
Dre BeltramiKeymasterI love this, sweetie. I can relate so hard to wanting to write but wondering if it’s good enough… or if anyone will care.
It sounds like you been on quite the personal growth journey too in the last year.
It’s nice to see things change when you’re doing so much soul searching isn’t it??! And it kinda creeps up. You don’t realize how much progress you make until something makes you stop and take notice.
Noooowww, you get to decide what that writing ‘calling’ looks like for you. 🥰
Dre BeltramiKeymasterThis was a sticking point for me until I realized how much more I have to offer being ME than the low touch + impersonalization of an agency or big business.
I realized a lot of people WANT to hire humans like us… in fact, they seek us out, because they’re sick to shit of the shenanigans and bureaucratic BS that goes on at the kind of companies you mentioned.
It all came down to perception to me. Once I saw things for what they were that “issue” was irrelevant for me.
Ricardo… you’re soooo much more than the Big 4 – the people who hire you were NOT trying to hire them. Bank on that. Own that. Embrace that. They WANT you because YOU have so much more to offer (even beyond the service itself).
Dre BeltramiKeymasterI la la loooove hearing your story of evolution, sweetie!! From reluctant to totally owning it, I can’t even imagine everything you’ve gone through during this process.
You sound firmly in a ‘why’ that’s driving you.
Thanks for sharing!!
Dre BeltramiKeymasterI’m so going to be a founding member of that club and will happily beta-test the patches. 😆
Dre BeltramiKeymasterI love this! Your ‘why’ is powerful AF, that shit is straight from your soul. It’s so different than any kind of job, isn’t it? I wish I could describe where this kind of calling comes from… I’m working on it but it’s time we all talk about it. I talk a lot more about this tomorrow…
Dre BeltramiKeymasterGuuuurrrllll, I couldn’t relate harder if I tried. I feel like a brat sometimes it’s sooooo all about what I want, when I want, how I want for me.
I’m realizing… we just know what we want. There’s nothing wrong with that!
Dre BeltramiKeymasterWow, that’s the biggest ‘why’ you can have as a parent. I’m so sorry she’s struggling so hard sweetie. I can’t even imagine what it feels like for you to watch her in so much pain. She’s so lucky to have a mom who’s so willing to fight for her. I’m sending you the biggest hug EVAH!!!
It’s beyond sad that your hubby has to work so fucking hard when he’s putting his life on the line.
I really hope you’ll keep sharing through out this theme party because I really want to know more about your business so I can help you ditch a bunch of those jobs as quickly as you can!
Please lean on me/us when you need, that’s what we’re here for! 🤗
Dre BeltramiKeymasterA lady who knows WTF she’s in this for. I love this for you!!
It’s crazy how much our SOLOpreneur ventures reinforce out indentities isn’t it??
Cheersing you hard… here’s to NO paycheck-fueled decisions in the last year! That’s HUGE!!! 🥂💃🏽
Dre BeltramiKeymasterAwwww, you’re so sweet for saying that!!!!! You have no idea how much it means to hear my stories matter – it’s so validating!! 🥰 ❤️ I could hug you so hard!!!
I’m standing on the arm of my sofa giving you a standing ovation… just THIS… all of THIS!!!
I feel the same about my 3-day weekend as you do about your mornings. I literally OWN them and I love them and they’ve put so much fucking joy back into my life. I didn’t know boundaries could taste good.
P.S. Road Trip Dominatrix… PLEASE DO THIS… I’m already 🤣🤣🤣… I’ll be your first subscriber.
Dre BeltramiKeymasterI love that sentence too! People DO have to pay me for what I know not what I do… and they have to pay me upfront because I don’t work for free anymore! 💃🏽
The amount of money mindset baggage I’ve had to work through is INSANE. My self-respect was total garbage!
Dre BeltramiKeymasterYESSS!!! That’s a message I’m drilling into my marrow too. Failure has DESTROYED my sense of self and made me a shell of a human before… it’s so important that I navigate life with a ‘it’s all a learning curve’ kinda adventure vibe. I have to work hard at it some days but it’s becoming more of a natural thought process rather than a forced + constant self-coaching.
