Over the last year and a half, I’ve gone back and forth about what to do about “Boudoir by Veronica” and what I wanted to see from my business in the future. I had made solid decisions but had yet to implement any more than 20% of it. I was even resistant to taking action, if I’m being completely honest. Slowly, I’ve come to the realization I had ignored many the nudges to shift. And at this time, I’m feeling bound too tight in a place much too small.

On top of it all, this year has turned entire world upside down in more ways than one.

And change always forces change.

While I’ve recently added on a new service to my offerings with Sensual Yoga classes, something with my photography work has been seriously amiss. As an artist, I’m proud of how far I’ve come and I’m in love with my current body of work but also as an artist, I’ve been aching for MORE.

More of the ethereal.

More of the simplistic.

More of the energetic feminine.

More luxury.

This 9th month of 2023 has been an unusual and quiet one for me. It’s also leading up to my business “new year” of October 1 and I’ve been allowed space to consider my path during this time. Do I continue this path or do I walk the path unknown? I read two quotes today, prompting me to share my thoughts:

The Spacious Realm of Your Own Soul

“When all is silent and you have no audience, no applause, are you still in love with what you do and how you do it? Your purest love affair lives in the spacious realm of your own soul. Spend time with this union, the divine Romance. Grow roots there.” – Jaiya John

Do Not Be Afraid

“Recognize that you are an artist of living. If something in your design is not going, according to vision, it is appropriate to make edits. Do not be afraid to exercise your creative power.” – Unknown

I had been feeling a pulling, a calling to take action but these are just two of many confirmations it’s time to GO THERE.

Easing Into the Silence

I’ve spent SO much time floating above everything I know I need to do. I’m not used to staying in the macro perspective for too long and it’s becoming painful for me not to get to work on my plans.

IT’S TIME FOR ME TO SINK IN…

I’ll be taking a sabbatical to take a deep dive, realign and allow the shift. I’m ready to bring larger dreams to life and I want to see what this looks like to me and what this means for Boudoir by Veronica & Awaken.

Bookings will be taken on a very limited and aligned basis for 2024.

If you have a session currently on the books for 2024 and as long as your session date remains the same, pricing will remain the same for you with the added perk of better product offerings and an elevated client experience.

Change is inevitable and as much as we all may want to resist, we also must acknowledge that it is good.

I’m ready for this.

I’m tearing the house down. I hope to see you on the other side.
