Chasing a dream and leaving it behind to chase another

The wind in your sails is usually a dream that pushes you forward. But what happens when that dream you’ve been working towards is no longer the one that fills your sails with gusto?!

I’ve been chasing a dream for over 4 years now of building a photography business that solely concentrated on intimate women’s photography, commonly known as boudoir, and in it’s 4th year of existence I came to the realization that I no longer wanted it’s success to be the race I was sailing towards. It rocked my world, to it’s core.

I worked hard to build my business and networked like crazy to gain the success I had always dreamed for my business. And when my hard work was finally paying off, I had no desire to spend another minute working on it. Some people might call it burn out, but I knew that the feelings inside me were speaking much louder than that. They were calling out for a deeper meaning and for my true existence to be used to it’s full potential.

After many months of wrestling with the obligation of continuing to run my now successful photography business or leaving it behind to concentrate on what truly ignited my core on fire I made the decision to go for it. It wasn’t and still isn’t easy. Each day I am confronted with ‘if only I had decided to keep pushing Adley Studio‘ but I know my soul is needing more.

I know that my being was created to help you chase your dreams and help inspire and motivate you. I am so looking forward to being on this journey with you!
