I’m Starting All Over Again….Yikes

Rediscovering My Passion: A Journey Back to Dolls

Ten years ago, I traded the joy of doll photography for the pursuit of a successful photography business. I convinced myself that me “playing with my dolls were was just a waste of time, and would never lead to financial success. Driven by the idea of “I should be spending my time putting myself out there as a professional photographer”, I abandoned my passion and started chasing wealth instead.

Fast forward to today, and I’m back where I belong – surrounded by my dolls, my sewing machine humming, and a sense of peace I haven’t felt in years. It took a decade of chasing fleeting financial goals to realize that true happiness comes from pursuing what we love.

This journey back to dolls wasn’t about money. It was about reconnecting with a part of myself that had been silenced by the relentless pursuit of success. Doll making isn’t just a hobby; it’s a form of creative expression that allows me to blend my love for photography, sewing, knitting, and crocheting. It’s a world where my imagination runs wild, and I can create miniature worlds filled with beauty and wonder.

This rediscovery has brought a profound sense of peace and well-being. The stress and anxiety that had plagued me for so long have dissipated, replaced by a newfound sense of purpose and joy. I’ve learned that following your heart, even if it means stepping away from conventional paths, is the key to a truly fulfilling life.

Embracing the Journey:

My dolls have become my confidants, silently witnessing my struggles and triumphs, inspiring me to embrace the beauty of my own unique path. Each doll, with its unique personality and handcrafted details, reflects my own evolving journey.

A Call to Action:

Don’t let the pursuit of financial success eclipse the joy of pursuing your passions. Remember, true happiness lies in following your heart and embracing the creative spirit that resides within us all. Pick up that paintbrush, that sewing needle, that camera, and let your passions guide you. You may just discover a world of joy and fulfillment that you never knew existed.
