Stepping into new roles and opening up to new possibilities

The goal for this week was to complete training of my amazing team.  In all of my businesses and at the same time a powerful woman rose to the occasion and stepped into management.  Daphne is now the Business manager of Pathways Holistic Center,  Mari is head of marketing, Teresa has become the Apothecary manager and Anna has brilliantly stepped into partner/manager of One Source Cleaning.   What I thought was going to be a chaotic week where I would be pulled in so many directions, I was taken by complete surprise.  By Thursday these women had full control and responsibility of their place in our business and for the first time I found myself at one desk, behind one computer working on all of the things that I have had to put off.  I can not believe I had attempted to do all of this work myself.  

So Today, as I ponder what to write about, I felt a celebration was in order. Whew, I kept all of that above water for 15 months and managed not to drown in the process but there is no doubt how close I came to that.  Today just for a moment while swamped in the day to day tasks of paying bills, to-do's, emails and phone calls, I celebrated that process of where I was, who I was and who I have become.  I embraced the fact that every bit of control in my life has vanished and a clean slate was born.  It may have been 15 months, but today I saw the first breath of life into those businesses. This week I let go and as my hand unwrapped from the strings to the unknown, I witnessed something taking flight.  

I think I will settle in nicely as the owner/visionary of my businesses.  I realized by letting go, I could accomplish so much more.  With gratitude for my new team I can see abundance, process and form.  My next quest will be to design a system for the accounting and then move on toward creating my biggest vision yet, Touchstone Natural Healing Corporation which is our non-profit. The difference between who I was 15 months ago and who I am today was the realization that thoughts do create reality, the idea that controlling the future is pointless and that love, integrity and authenticity are the keys to abundance & success.
