It wasn’t a dramatic scene...
There was no big failure, no business-ending crisis. Just me, sitting on the floor of my home office, surrounded by open tabs, a notebook full of half-formed ideas, and a creeping feeling of “I have no idea what I’m doing.”
And I cried.
Not because I was weak, but because I was tired.
Tired of trying to Google my way to success.
Tired of spinning my wheels on Instagram, Canva, and website builders.
Tired of the pressure to figure it out right now without asking for help.
It wasn’t that I lacked passion. If anything, I had too much — for helping people, building something meaningful, and finally doing work that lit me up inside.
But I didn’t know where to start.
And that’s what broke me that day.
The Silent Struggle No One Talks About
People glamorize entrepreneurship.
The freedom, the flexibility, the “I work from anywhere with a coffee and a dream” narrative.
But here’s what they don’t show you:
-
The late nights wondering if you’re cut out for this.
-
The decision fatigue that comes from choosing a logo, a platform, a name, and a niche.
-
The shame that creeps in when everyone else looks like they’ve figured it out, and you feel stuck before you’ve even begun.
That’s where I was. A driven, creative, capable woman… on the verge of giving up, not because I couldn’t do it, but because I felt alone in trying.
What Changed Everything
That moment on the floor wasn’t the end. It was the beginning.
I stopped pretending I could do this in isolation.
I started leaning into what I did know — how to organize, plan, build relationships, and find clarity in chaos. I took every small win and stacked it, slowly but surely, into something real.
And eventually, Inside The Cart was born.
A service, yes. But more than that — a space.
For people like you.
People who have an idea, a product, a service… but don’t know how to launch it into the world without burning out.
People who want to look professional without hiring a massive agency.
People who need someone in their corner, not selling them fluff, but guiding them through the fog.
So, If You’re Sitting on the Floor Today…
First: breathe.
Second: know that you're not the only one.
And third: you don’t have to figure this all out alone.
I offer real, practical support for entrepreneurs just starting out — from creating your first website and social media accounts, to developing content, brand visuals, and a marketing strategy that actually makes sense for where you’re at.
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about movement.
So if you’re ready to take a step forward — even just a small one — I’m here. Let’s build something together, from the ground up. (Just maybe not from the office floor.)
