I sway between embracing experimenting and loving it! (Like my Substack and learning the piano again)….to being stuck in analysis paralysis (building a website for a project I’m involved in and starting a new Substack publication)

I know deep down it’s the next step, I just falter when I don’t feel I have the skills to bring it to life: That’s when I have to remember that 80% is good enough. It doesn’t have to be perfect! I’m practically over half way there with all the prep. I just need to be brave and get it over the line and bring it life. ✨

Love all of this Mika! We all know what it feels like to over analyze our work and creative projects... but good on you for showing up and putting your work out anyway. I’m excited to hear about this project and website you are working on!

My husband is building an app to learn kanji for expats in Japan. It’s pretty awesome. Our son is helping with coding and my daughter is doing design work. I’m doing marketing. Launching next month, fingers crossed.

Definitely good advice with "Just do it and screw perfection!" You're so right with that!

Sounds like you've found your vibe!
