In My Head with Shelly is a podcast about creating a simpler, more intentional life, without having it all figured out. From minimalism and low-buy living to creativity, personal growth, journaling, and navigating life as a small creator, Shelly shares the thoughts, lessons, and conversations happening in her head as she figures it all out.
Think of it as a little corner of the internet for slowing down, living with intention, and becoming the person you actually want to be.
In this episode, I’m sharing how I started my small business without a perfect plan, tons of experience, or everything figured out—and why that was one of the best decisions I’ve made. If you’ve been holding off on launching your idea because you don’t feel “ready,” this episode is your reminder that done is better than perfect. Let’s talk about the power of starting scared, messy, and inspired.
