| | | why 'Grit' is my power word | | | | Hey , Mary here- just wanted to send a note and sincerely thank you for being a part of the Made by Mary community! As a young mom with post-partum depression I took a chance on myself & started Made by Mary over a decade ago. At the time I didn't have the awareness to recognize my worth or know my power. Truth is, I wanted to run away from my story. I didn't have the courage or strength to own the ugly and dark parts of it. I wanted to be somebody else. I spent a lot of my early years resisting. Until Made by Mary. Starting this business opened my eyes & changed my perspective. I didn't realize the healing one could experience with strangers on the internet. As orders would come in, so would these unexpected powerful stories behind the pieces— meanings that would stop me in my tracks & fill me with new perspective. I remember feeling so seen & validated as I would read through some of the struggles & hard times others were going through. I could feel their light through their words. Their confidence & hope. Their strength & grit. If these people could be so proud of their story— why couldn't I be proud of mine? Through the years of learning to accept myself & own my story— grit became my word. It motivated & empowered me. So much of life is gritty. It's messy. It's dirty. It's hard. But it's those moments that make us. It's the rising up & leaning in. Not being afraid to sit in the discomfort of it all. It's life changing work. There have been lots of tears and reflections- shedding the last bits of the fear that held me back. Recognizing in real time my growth, my strength, my depth— my grit. Thank you for being here. For sharing your story with us & for helping me learn how to own & love mine. Beautiful, exciting things are ahead! xx,
Mary | | | | |
