I want to say it gets better.  In life I’ve really found that to be true. In romantic relationships, homes, friends, employees. But sometimes it gets worse first. How do you know when it’s time to walk away from a dream? From everything you’ve invested, with nothing–less than nothing, far far less than what you started with? You know it when it happens. The final straw.  HEADS UP: This is a very raw, salty, cursing, no holding back episode.   Links mentioned in this episode: Read the Introduction Chapter of “What Makes Women Feel Beautiful” that you heard the editor’s feedback on in the episode. Want to hear what’s coming in June? Enter your email for the book download and you’ll be invited to the garden, blooming soon.   If you know any author or creative this could bless–or anyone in the corporate, church, world and beyond as I’ve been shocked at how the majority saying they can relate are not in creative fields–please share this series.   If you do so on Instagram tag me @HilaryRushford so I can thank you for doing what I wish someone had done for me, and/or hear what parts spoke to you the most.   If you’re an author or in the publishing industry and want to share your experience after listening, write to me privately at books@deanstreetsociety.com. All correspondence will remain anonymous. Thank you in advance for helping me navigate what might be next for myself and other writers, with your positive or challenging experiences, insights, and advice. Together is how we lift up artists, creatives, and creators.
