All aboard the struggle bus!

A lot of people are working on their “ideal client avatar” (ICA) and coming up with specific phrases that sum up the values or goals for their ICA. For example, “change-maker” seems to be a popular one.

But, as a spoonie, sometimes (and maybe most times) it takes all we have to just get out of bed each day… it’s not only the physical aspect of getting out of bed but the struggle within our own minds to start a new day knowing that things are not going to be bright and shiny and awesome.

So, I’m going to put this out there for my ICA, we deal with personal struggle quite often. It’s the struggle of our body’s unpredictability, the struggle of dealing with other people who “don’t really ‘get it”, it’s the struggle of decisions- like what can I manage to prepare for myself to eat, and so on and so forth.

My ICA definitely deals with PERSONAL STRUGGLE.

There, how’s that for insight?!

Oh and btw, give yourself an extra round of applause if you made it out of bed today.
