π£Important Announcement, Please read π£
Itβs with the heaviest heart that I tell you I will be taking a break from/with Short Apparel.
At this point in my life, I donβt feel aligned with my business venture and I think Iβve put it down to bad timing on my end. I started my business when Isla was 3 months old, not knowing what I envisioned for my business or my family.
The last 6 months have been very challenging and itβs now come down to a daily question of βhave I got the energy and determination to continueβ. Starting a business from the ground up is no joke. It takes so much of your soul, time, focus, energy and so on.
First and foremost, Iβm a mum and a wife and I wear those labels with so much pride. I feel I havenβt been as present with my family as I want and need to be. Iβve learnt that I canβt balance it all without running myself into the ground.
I have lost certain parts of myself that I loved but I have also learnt so much along this journey. The beautiful relationships with other ladies in business has been such a blessing in such a lonely space, so I know Iβm not the only one who feels this but I know I have to do something about it.
It truely breaks my heart for this decision, but I know deep down that itβs the right thing to do at this point in time. Iβm not sure what the future holds for Short Apparel, but for now Iβll be taking a big social media break to realign and centre myself and figure out what truly matters to me as an individual. And who knows what creative ideas Iβll come up with in the process.
I will be having a big sale to clear as much stock as possible so please keep and eye out for that.
To all my beautiful ladies who always engage and have a chat- Thank you! To all my beautiful customers who have supported and loved my products, THANK-YOU! You guys have made it all worth it.
To Luke, my beautiful husband. Thank you for making it all possible.
Iβd say come and follow my personal account, but I post once a year, so itβs probably not even worth it π
Iβll update you on the sale soon π€π€
With so much love,
Steph xx
