Sometimes You Just Need One Person to Say, “Yeah, You’re Not Crazy.”

Let’s be honest: trying to do literally anything hard, like changing careers, starting a business, or even figuring out what the hell you want, can feel like yelling into the void while everyone else just... thrives (or survives).

And when you're stuck in that weird in-between space (burnt out, unsure, or just plain over it), you don’t need a 10-step plan or a motivational quote on a mug.
You need one person who says, “I see you. You’re doing better than you think. Also, take a nap.”

For me, those people have come in all kinds of forms.
A therapist who reminded me I didn’t have to earn rest.
A coworker who casually pointed out that I’m kind of a wizard at fixing broken systems.
A friend who hyped me up like I just won an Oscar when I turned in my two weeks’ notice.

None of them handed me a grand plan.
They just gave me enough encouragement to keep going. To try the next thing. To believe that maybe I wasn’t just flailing around in the dark.

And honestly, that’s what I want Margarete Media to be.

Not a “Boss Babe Empire.” Not hustle culture with cuter fonts.
Just real, creative support for wherever you are in your career, your business, or your life in general.
Sometimes you just need one person to believe in you before you can believe in yourself.
If that’s what you’re looking for, hi. I’m your person.

xo,

Joanna
