I’m aware I haven’t been that present on sheet for a while now and a lot has happened since I last posted anything of any significance.
For those of you who don’t know me that well it’s been an incredibly stressful 3 years for me setting up Mārama’s Mushrooms. From starting a business under capitalised, not knowing anything about running a business and being terrible at setting boundaries to allow myself to have space to simply be, I have learned many lessons since starting this business. Probably the biggest lesson being that I choose me over my business. There’s been 4 times I have reached burn out and I have put my business ahead of my own health many times to the detriment of my mental and physical health but no more! I choose me!
And so I’m off to Bali to have a break to rest and recoup. I’ve taken all but one product down from the website now. That product being the Pekepekekiore tincture. There’s been great feedback on it and it warms my heart to feel people feeling a beneficial difference from something created with my own hands. If you are still wanting to buy it, no worries. I have organised for any orders to be sent out in the post while I am away.
I would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who has been a supporter of Mārama’s Mushrooms to this point. It has been a crazy ride in some ways through the lockdowns and getting my original Instagram account stolen and losing 2000 followers to having amazing staff to not@having the physical and mental capacity keep them on which was one of the hardest things I’ve had to go through with this business so far. I’ve still had amazing staff, friends and family support me through it all and I’m so grateful for that. You make my world the magic place that it is. I am here where I am because of you. Sending you all love my friends amd thank you again 🙏❤️
That’ll do for now! I better go catch my plane…
Mush love,
