Sleepy Girl Success was founded in the need to build business differently than how I had been told businesses were built.

I have watched and assisted countless overwhelmed and exhausted business owners and I somehow continue to believe that business can be done in a more balanced way. Call me naive, call me an optimist, both of those might be true!

As a recovering workaholic and a person who wore burnout like a badge of honor, I’m done. I’m throwing in the towel. I don’t want a get rich quick scheme, I don’t want to spend every waking moment that I am not at my regular full time job to be painstakingly spent building something that I realistically can’t maintain.

I want to build a balanced business, and I want to nurture sustainable success. I don’t see myself as a pioneer, but I do see myself as someone who needs to hear more of these stories and who wants the stories accessible to others who also cannot afford to do business at the price of their family and health. Our health is a delicate balancing act, and I think so many people believe that it must be sacrificed for the sake of doing business. Please help me prove this wrong.

I want to make it clear that I am not an example of how to do this, I fully intend to build this company because I want to work on this together. So where do we start? For me, I am taking the first step of defining what success looks like and feels like to me. Follow along to see where we go from there.

Love, Ryann
