I used to refer to myself as a hot mess often in the early blogging days circa 2008, until someone scolded me saying it wasn’t a nice way to describe myself, that maybe it wasn’t the best self-image to curate. So I stopped. But I lost something in dropping the “hot” and the “mess” as I now approach middle age (and grandma-status in my soul).

Today's post is a crossover from my newest project, Rolling in D🤦🏻‍♀️h: Divine disaster diaries from a bread-winning business owner living in New York city. This is a paid Substack where I share personal essays about the real nitty-gritty aspects of running a business, especially when sh*t hits the fan. My friend Leanne calls it “business reality TV.” My husband Michael says it's picking up where Sex and the City left off, but this time about money.

You can follow me directly on my profile page at Substack to see what I’m publishing across ‘Doh, Free Time, and Pivot at http://substack.com/@jennyblake.


📝 Permission

To have messes in your business at the moment—even hot, complicated, gnarly messes. You are still here, and you are still learning and trying and troubleshooting; that’s all that matters.


Do (or Delegate) This Next

Take a day or two off! Celebrate the mess if it means you’re still in business :)
