HELLO from Kim SUTTON!

Kim Sutton
Founder, Positive Productivity
Dear friend, it’s important you know and trust I will ALWAYS be honest with you… EVEN when it means admitting the messy, ugly truths of my own entrepreneurial journey… And I have a lot of messy, ugly truths.
For example, I, Kim Sutton, know what it’s like to…
- Miss important family moments because I “need” one more minute in front of my computer;
- Work 20 hour days, 7 days a week yet still have a negative bank account balance;
- Jump from one idea to the next never finishing a project and, thus, never making money from any of the projects;
- Say “yes” to the wrong clients out of desparation to bring in money;
- Fall victim to Shiny Object Syndrome, buying courses, products and programs because I thought they were the solution to all my business’ problems;
- Become ill, physically and mentally, due to working too much;
- Post non-stop to social media, my blog and my podcast with $0 revenue
I, Kim Sutton, also know how to recover from all of the above pains. I know because I have personally done it.
I know the true cost of letting our businesses control our lives, and I don’t want to see you fall victim to the negative side-effects of entrepreneurship I did. I’m committed to empowering you with the systems and strategies you need to help you get away from your business and back to the people and activities you love WITHOUT sacrificing revenue.
So my question for you is… Do you want to continue being a slave to your business? Or are you ready for change?
I invite you to join me now on the Faith & Focus Work Smarter, Not Harder journey. Subscribe to the podcast, join the community and get ready to see your business and personal life change for the better.
I wish you all the blessings in the world, dear friend, and I can’t wait to see you soar.
HOW CAN I SUPPORT YOU?

Something magical happened this morning.
I can’t point to one specific thing which changed me, but whoooooa… I felt it. I FEEL it.
Deep feelings of hurt, stress, sadness and not-enoughness which I have felt for longer than I can remember vanished with a big, powerful whoosh of fresh air.
🌬️ Whooooooosh….
And the most amazing thing about this beautiful breeze is that it can’t be attributed to anybody but me and God.
I found my peace within me and with Him.
I finally know and feel in my soul that…
💥 I didn’t deserve any of the hurts, insults or shaming I endured
💥 The hurt I experienced gave/gives me the strength to create the future of my dreams
💥 I am a high value woman and individual who can achieve anything I set my mind to
💥 I am not a toy to be played with, broken and discarded. I am a prize to be won and cherished.
💥 Focusing on me and my goals isn’t selfish, it’s required
💥 I can say “no” and mean it without being a bitch
💥 I can share my feelings without feeling guilty
💥 I can be firm while also being kind
💥 I can be alone without being lonely
💥 I’m enough and anybody who doesn’t agree isn’t for me
💥 I am worth the right person’s time, attention, affection, support and respect
💥 I’m done with excuses, regrets and mourning
💥 I’m ready, willing and able to be the high value woman I know I am
I haven’t felt this type of peace and excitement in years. Thinking about it, I probably haven’t felt peace anywhere close to this since 2014. Nine years of stress and feeling uneasy has disappeared with a…
Whoosh.
I feel… free. 🗝️😁💥
Some days your best will look better than others.
On the days when your best doesn`t feel as impressive, don`t beat down on yourself, but give yourself love and know you did the best you could.
Yesterday, for example, I woke up early and went to the gym.
I got to the gym, went to the locker room and realized, "I need to care for my tender heart and emotions today. Caring for my mind is more important today than building my physical muscles. I`m going home."
And I did.
I journalled.
I read the Bible.
I read other books.
I worked (I`m supporting on a phenomenal live event this weekend).
I listened to music.
I chatted with supportive friends.
I cried.
But I did my best.
I didn`t beat myself up.
I did my best and did what I felt I needed to do.
And today I reap the rewards.
I feel better emotionally than I have in years.
Yesterday`s choice not to push and acknowledgement that I was not at my best allowed me to feel the best I have in years today.
To me, that`s a win.

Last week was... Challenging.
I suppose you could say that if life never had it`s difficult moments we would never learn how to become better versions of ourselves.
This particular day was... rough.
My heart was heavy.
I had a lot to do but my mind was anywhere but on my work.
But I know that if I allowed myself to be distracted by desires, I wouldn`t be able to focus on what I needed to do.
So I took a shower.
I washed off my stinking thinking.
And I put on lipstick, which by my feed you know is not a frequent thing.
I think I`ll be doing it more from here on out.
Upleveling and working toward bigger and better in my life means daring to do what`s uncomfortable.
And some days, red lipstick is uncomfortable.
I am beyond words grateful right now, while also being beyond words exhausted.
Three months ago exactly I started working with a new client, and this weekend I have privilege of supporting them (on tech) with their live event. I`m building automations in Keap/infusionsoft, testing order forms and processes dozens of times, loading emails and text messages and so much more.
And while the hours I work would normally be exhausting without benefits (12 hours and still counting today), the content I`m able to listen to while working is exactly what I need as I move from one season of life into another.
If you`re going through a difficult time right now, please don`t give up. I am proof of why.
Last November I lost a client who made up 99% of my income. While I was able to find smaller projects, I admittedly spent a lot of time looking to see if there were any food or grocery delivery opportunities in the area. Hey, a mom has to do what a mom has to do to make sure her kids are provided for.
And then, at the end of February, I submitted a proposal for what sounded like an amazing opportunity. I started working with the company three days later, on my birthday.
i am beyond grateful for the opportunity as well as for the people who encouraged me to keep going during those tough months. Your encouragement and motivation is/was beyond priceless. I love and appreciate you.
