I said no
And suddenly everything was on my terms
Something surprising happened today.
I said no to working with a potential interior design client which on paper looked like exactly the sort of job I would have dreamed of six months ago.
But the conditions weren’t quite right and there was a slightly anxious feeling in the pit of my stomach that I couldn’t quite put my finger on.
That was until I said no, and then everything made sense.
I’m in a different business headspace now, 6 months into running Hannah Ashe Interior Design full time. Plus, I’m just back from an extremely relaxing two week break, which I’m realising was more than just a holiday. It was a time to reflect on everything that had happened in the past six months and the huge life and work changes I’ve made in recent years. It gave me space, and I needed that space more than I realised.
The enquiry came in just as I was about to go on holiday: a beautiful Victorian property - exactly the kind I love to work on.
