I don’t show my face very often or talk much about I don’t show my face very often or talk much about the business side of what I do, but as the year wraps up, it feels worth saying this out loud.On this last day of 2025, I’ve been reflecting on how my work fits into my life and how grateful I am to do something I genuinely enjoy. Running a vegetarian recipe website is my full-time job. It helps pay the bills, challenges me creatively, and gives me the flexibility to shape my days in a way that truly works for my life.I get to decide how and when I work. I can focus deeply, step away when I need to, and make room for the things that matter without having to negotiate my time or explain my choices. That freedom didn’t happen by accident. It came from years of showing up.Cooking, testing, writing, photographing, and sharing real food I’m making and serving at home is something I truly enjoy. Turning that into a business that contributes to our bottom line and continues to grow has been intentional and deeply rewarding.So if you’ve been thinking about doing something a little differently, or leaning into the thing you keep coming back to, give yourself permission to take it seriously.Ending the year with gratitude and looking forward to what’s ahead.
Happy New Year! 🎉#CreativeBusinessOwner #RecipeDeveloper #FoodPublisher #YearEndReflection
