  7. Meghan, I almost teared up while reading this post! I am overjoyed for your success and it’s been a blessing to watch it (and you) grow over the years. I remember the summer I worked in your kitchen made me realize what it took to be a success. I remember telling people, “That girl has a lot of hustle, and a lot of heart!”. You worked for this and deserve every bit of goodness that comes back to you. Thank you for your colour, creativity, fierceness, honesty, and inspiration. Happy bday Making Love In The Kitchen :)

  8. Thanks for sharing your insight. Each of these lessons is so important. “Let go of the outcome” is a great attitude to life. Reminds me a bit of this quote:
    “Waking up to who you are requires letting go of who you imagine yourself to be.” ~Alan Watts

  9. Meghan, huge props to you and big congrats on making it to seven years! I’ve been reading your blog just about as long as you’ve had it up on the internet, and it’s been a blast watching your work grow and thrive. I am starting my own business currently (nothing to do with food) and I have to say, you and your work are an inspiration to me! Here’s to seven more years of UnSuccess! ;)

  10. Ahhh, thanks Meghan, for this sage and down-to-earth advice. Seven years! Congrats! I’ve only recently found you here, but already feel like you’re destined for awesomeness (even more so!). Just keep on rocking that Realness, babe! ;)

  11. What a wonderful and revealing message. I resonate with so much you have written, still in the early stages of my online business. My current site is just over a year old and still figuring out myself/my niche.
    It’s really exciting to see what you have created. Congratulations!

  12. I needed to read this, as a new business owner myself. Very good advice, and I’m sure I’ll be referring back to this when needed! Thank you for posting this, and congratulations on your successful business!

  13. Meghan,
    Firstly Congratulations on your tremendous success!! You continue to inspire everyday. Thank you for writing this article. It could not have come at a better time as I work so hard everyday to build my business and question where it’s going? I love the concept to “let go of the outcome” – I really can’t control that and I realize that now. Stay focused on my inner voice and BREATHE! Everyday is a good day :-) Best wishes to you!
