start something.

After almost a year of planning, researching, building, co-creating, dreaming and expanding, my company is thrilled to announce the launch of our freshly re-designed and envisioned website building platform under the love filled motto of Start something.

{**insert excited applause and rallying cheers of encouragement**}

It ain't always easy to start something, amirite? It can be humbling, a little scary and oh.my.word ever so jarring on those comfortable vs. vulnerable levels. It takes real courage to put ourselves out there; to be you, me, us in the most authentic ways. Take my blog, for example. Being a writer is pretty much the only thing I've ever consistently wanted to be since I was a kid and while my spirit felt really ready to share via this medium years ago, my ego often spoke louder in a voice of concern and worry, causing me to silence and question what I really wanted. To this day I occasionally take a deep breath before hitting "post" and then sweat out whether or not my writing is worthy of being shared...whether or not anyone is actually listening...for some time afterward. But I go for it. Each time I log in, I'm taking a leap. And I'm so glad Weebly is the tool I use to keep The Grateful Life growing. I am so glad Weebly is the tool I rely on to hold me accountable for my best life possible.

Obviously, folks could point out my Weebly employee status and note I am a bit biased in my support of this platform. And, really, they wouldn't be wrong--I am incredibly proud to be a part of this team and am pretty much big-mama-style beaming at their successes thus far. But I also deeply wish to emphasize how this same status allows me a unique peek into the inner workings (the spirit, if you will) of this company; how it gives me a pulse on the very, very positive energy these creative minds wish to pump out into the great wide web and subsequently, the world.

They didn't ask me to write this post. In fact, they'll probably all blush when they see it and then modestly shoo me away so they can keep working without my annoying quirk (we're calling it a quirk, just go with it) of worrying if their spirits feel big or small. But here is what I want you to know about the Weebly team, based solely on my own behind-the-scenes, personal observations, experiences and exchanges with them over the past 2.5 years:

My dear Friends, Grateful Lifers, entrepreneurs and dreamers--they are rooting for you.

They (we!) are excited to see how our users--past, present and future--will keep utilizing this product to help respond to that piece of themselves that says they've got something special to offer. Whether it be tangible services and products, or messages, visions and ideas--we want you to show us what you've got. We want you to know that is your ticket to success. That piece of you that desires to be heard and to connect in a plethora of unique ways?  That is your innate creativity (we all have it, I promise) and we are genuinely listening and hoping to support you in bringing this satisfaction, joy, and sense of purpose into the limelight of your life.

So, if you have been needing a final sign to follow your heart and really start something...consider this it. Speak your truth. Give permission to your passions. Instead of asking your spirit what if it doesn't work out?, dare to ask what if it does?

And if there comes a time in your journey to your best life possible where you question your capabilities and wonder whether anyone out there truly believes in you, please remember:

We do.

love and light,

Trish
