Taking Off My Super Woman Cape

Welcome back!
Over the weekend my husband reminded me that I used to call myself Super Woman. I looked at him strange and he said, “Well you did.” I told him that I must have been joking and that I surely do not feel like super woman now. After having three children, taking on a writing business, establishing a ministry and returning to seminary to finish my Master’s I feel like anyone BUT Super Woman. 
Today, after three weeks of feeling like I was in a major rut and totally realizing I am experiencing what many of you have probably experienced before, “Burnout” I’ve decided to seriously end the “super woman” phase of my life and to take off my super woman cape.
I cannot continue down the path that I have started down. I am experiencing major burnout and I am slowly as a result loosing my passion and my creativity. I’m no longer enjoying what I do, so therefore something HAD to give.
Today, I did what I encourage others to do as the trainer over at FaithLeaps.com I took a leap of faith. I am officially outsourcing all writing to my team of writers over at A Writer for Hire. While I will still be overseeing all the articles and working with my clients via all correspondence, I will no longer be heading up the writing itself. I am going to be putting all my creative juices and writing skills back into my passion, my ministry and FaithLeaps itself. More than anything I love to help others. So my focus will now be those things I love to do:
- Helping others to take a leap of faith into speaking, writing and ministry.
- Helping moms and daughters grow their relationship with each other and their relationship with God.
- Helping girls be what God made them to be not what the world wants them to be.
Stay tuned this means projects for me, and you know projects make me happy. So be looking for some happier posts in the days ahead.
