Keep Resentment from Creeping Into Your Business.

Prepare yourself; I'm getting vulnerable with you today and exploring one of the yuckiest feelings that I've ever experienced as an entrepreneur - Resentment.

A quick Google search yielded the following definition:

Resentment is a complex, multilayered emotion that has been described as a mixture of disappointment, disgust, anger, and fear at having been treated unfairly.

Ugh. I can feel every word of that sentence in my bones. And, although we often relate the feeling of resentment to people or relationships in our life, the place where I experienced it the most was in my business.

Even worse, I didn't know it.

Over time (I owned that business for over 13 years), the business had gone from being a space that filled me up both creatively and professionally to being the place that I dreaded going to every week.
 

How was it possible that I could be experiencing resentment toward the very thing that I created?!
