Three months ago, I found myself in a routine that felt limiting. I was going through the motions of waking up, going to work, showing up for my family but deep down, I craved more. More creativity. More purpose. More alignment. I wanted to tap into my creative side and build something personal and inspiring. So, I took a leap of faith and started my research on now what turned out to be JasceyCents.
Not from a place of certainty, but from a place of trust.

LEARNING TO TRUST THE FLOW
From the very beginning, I chose to move with an abundance mindset. I believed there was more than enough time, energy and opportunity for me to build something meaningful. And that belief, even on the hard days, became my anchor.
The start wasn’t easy because I didn’t have a perfect plan. I was figuring it out as I went. When I felt lost and overwhelmed I didn’t panic, I paused, stepped back, reset, and started building systems that supported my peace and that’s when things began to shift slowly, intentionally, beautifully.That’s the power of an abundance mindset it changes your lens.
Now, I celebrate progress over perfection. I take deep joy in the small wins: an encouraging message, a completed task, a good night’s rest. I honor the season I’m in, knowing that the life I’m building already feels more like mine than ever before.

MOVING FROM URGENCY TO ALIGNMENT
The deeper I go into this journey, the more I realize that abundance isn’t just about what you have, it’s about how you see. It’s not the numbers in your bank account, or the amount of free time on your calendar. It’s the way you show up for yourself. It’s knowing that you are allowed to want more and still be at peace with where you are.
Some days, abundance looks like creative flow and energy. Other days, it’s the discipline to rest, to pause, to say no without guilt. I’ve learned that protecting your peace is part of living abundantly. Because when your soul feels safe, your ideas flourish.
There’s a quiet power in choosing to trust. Trusting your pace. Trusting your path. Trusting that what you’re building will not just serve others but will also sustain you.
I stopped rushing. I started trusting.
Instead of chasing success, I aligned myself with it. I focused on showing up with clarity, gratitude, and a deep sense of presence. What is wild, that energy started attracting the right people, the right opportunities, the right flow. I’ve had moments where one closed door revealed five open ones I didn’t expect
Some days, abundance looks like creative bursts and momentum. Other days, it looks like quiet rest and intentional no’s.
I learned that protecting my peace is just as important as pursuing my purpose. Because when your soul feels safe, your ideas flourish.

BUILDING FROM OVERFLOW, NOT BURNOUT
I’m no longer building from burnout, I’m building from overflow. From the values that matter to me. From the version of myself I’m proud of becoming.
If there’s one thing I hope you take away from this, it’s this: you don’t need to hustle yourself into exhaustion to create a life you love. Move with intention, stay grateful, and trust that what’s for you is always finding its way.
This season has taught me to listen closely to my own rhythm. Not the rush of what others expect, or the pressure of constant output but the steady beat of my own becoming. I’ve stopped measuring my worth by how busy I am or how much I can juggle. Now, I measure it by how whole I feel.
There’s so much noise out there telling us to grind, to chase, to do more. But I’ve found that the most magnetic energy comes from alignment, not overwhelm. From moving with clarity, not chaos. And the truth is, when you’re rooted in abundance, you don’t chase you attract.
I no longer feel like I’m fighting to prove myself. I’m not in a race. I’m in a rhythm. And that rhythm is sacred.

So now, I ask myself different questions: Does this feel good to my spirit? Is this aligned with my values? Will this choice make me proud a year from now?
That’s the abundance I want to keep cultivating not just in my business, but in my life.
The more I honor that rhythm, the more my business starts to reflect who I truly am. Not just what I offer but how I offer it. I’m not building from urgency anymore. I’m building from overflow. From intention. From joy.
That shift changes everything. My creativity flows better. My decisions feel cleaner. I trust my intuition more. And even on days when I feel unsure, I don’t spiral I pause. I breathe. I come back to center.
Because here’s the truth: You don’t have to sacrifice your peace to be successful. You don’t have to compromise your values to make money. You don’t have to lose yourself to build something meaningful.
In fact, the more you stay true to who you are, the more magnetic your business becomes. People feel the energy behind what you create. They’re not just buying a product or service they’re buying into the energy, the story, the belief you carry.
And that belief rooted in abundance, in gratitude, in wholeness is what makes everything sustainable.

I’ve learned to let go of timelines that weren’t mine. To release the pressure of being “there” already, wherever “there” is. I remind myself daily: I’m allowed to evolve. To pivot. To pause and come back stronger.
Every step I take every journal page, every product, every message I share is a seed.
Some bloom right away. Others take their time. But they’re all growing something bigger than just results. They’re growing trust. Alignment. Legacy.
That’s what this journey is really about: building a life that feels like yours. A business that honors your energy. A path that doesn’t demand you become someone else, but invites you to become more of who you are.
YOU ARE BECOMING
So if you’re reading this and you feel stretched thin, uncertain, or behind, I hope you hear this clearly: You are not late. You are not lacking. You are not alone. You are becoming.
And that’s more than enough.
Let that be your reminder today: stay rooted, stay present, stay true.
The life you’re building is already full of beauty. And the best part? You’re just getting started.
This my story, a true story and its not the end!
