Too old to be hustling Responding to your comments

Introduction

Hello, dear readers! I’m Georgina, your honest wellness coach and psychic, here to share an update on my life and reflect on a comment I recently received regarding my hustle and age. As it’s a Monday, I had the chance to take a morning break, which left me feeling refreshed. After treating myself to a lovely breakfast of no-fat yogurt mixed with salted caramel protein powder and chocolate sprinkles, I jumped into some crafting.

Speaking of crafts, I’m thrilled to share that I made my very first pumpkin using some lovely mustard-colored chunky yarn! I came up with my own pattern as I wasn’t keen on some of the patterns I found online. It involved triple crocheting back and forth to create a ribbed effect. I even filled it with trimmed yarn pieces to keep it environmentally friendly—no plastic involved! This little pumpkin is just a prototype, and now that I’ve got the hang of it, I plan on making larger variants to sell in my shop.

Turning to the topic at hand, someone commented on my YouTube channel, questioning why I continue to hustle at my age. They mentioned that I should play the game smarter and highlighted my experience with health issues, including surgeries and having a pacemaker. I appreciate their concern, but this perspective comes off as a bit ageist. The question is, at what age are we supposed to stop pursuing our passions?

Absolutely, I understand that health limitations exist, especially after my experiences. Still, I believe in pushing through, especially when battling depression. Engaging in creative endeavors—notably crafting and teaching—provides me with a sense of purpose, even if I face challenges along the way. Yes, some jobs feel tedious, but they’re essential steps toward achieving larger goals.

Reflecting on my recent experience, I painted a spare room for my friend Liz, which turned out to be a more challenging task than expected. From dealing with equipment issues to tackling a job I initially didn’t want to do, it was all part of the process. And you know what? Every accomplishment requires a journey of learning and overcoming obstacles.

Regarding the concept of passive income, I’d love to reach a point where earnings come easy, but the reality is that it requires ongoing effort. Even YouTube channels and online courses need regular updates. I enjoy the engagement and unpredictability of working for myself, teaching, crafting, and connecting with customers in the shop.

Lastly, as I prepare to move in with Liz to help her, I find companionship and support in this transition, which is lovely. John, who helps at my shop, has been fantastic in alleviating stress and allowing me the time to indulge my creative side too.

So, for anyone wondering if there’s an age limit on hustling or following passions: there isn’t! I’d love to hear your thoughts on this topic. Do you feel there’s a right age to settle down or should we keep pursuing our endeavors regardless of age?
