Showing Up For Myself After Years Of Darkness
2025 was the first year I prioritized sharing my entrepreneurial journey after finally launching the A-Game Creations website on the auspicious day of Diwali at the end of 2024.
It was my way of letting the light back in my life after 5 years of darkness and one of the hardest chapters of my life so far, which was filled with more loss than I ever thought imaginable.
While it can be super easy to dwell on the negatives when you're experiencing so much grief, trying to keep it altogether and move forward, it was during this time that I also gained so much clarity. I learned, unlearned, focused on what truly mattered, and prioritized what was right for me, even when no one else understood.
Along the way, I started savoring life's little adventures again and standing up for myself and my values.
Professionally, during those dark years, the love of my life and I continued to grow our businesses, passion projects, and endeavors to the best of our abilities because we couldn't afford not to, despite life's chaos.
Eventually, after helping so many others launch their websites, create content, and share their stories, it finally felt like the right time to share mine again.
My multi-passionate creative entrepreneurial journey spans from a lifetime of volunteering and helping others with creative talents I am passionate about and enjoy, and a culmination of dedicated professional support since 2017, when I risked it all and left the corporate world.
We typically shied away from saying yes to in-person opportunities in favor of working from the comfort of our home, so in 2025, we set a resolution to finally say YES, which led to one of the best years of travel, work, projects, experiences, and so much self-love, growth, and healing.
Even in the rush of life, I'm still learning to make room for the things that fill my heart. The small joys. The intentional moments. The 'yes, this feels right' decisions.
Life isn't just about surviving or keeping up with and accomplishing goals; it's about choosing what matters and living your life the way you need and want.
