THOUGHTS ON BEING BOSS FROM BANES CREATIVE DESIGN

Diana Banes of @banescreativedesign is not only an incredibly talented graphic designer with an impressive career and body of work- she’s my bestie!

In November 2020, Diana officially entered the world of full time business owner! I asked Diana to share what has surprised her about the transition to being THE boss….

“I didn’t realize how much time I would be investing in my own business after “business hours”. I’m constantly thinking about things for Banes Creative at all hours of the day and night... it’s like I have no off button lol! I can’t close the office door and go home because my work IS in my home and I AM THE BOSS!
I do love the flexibility of being able to do whatever I need to do during the day because I’m the only one who dictates when the time to do the work is appropriate."

I am VERY thankful to have support as I’m making this transition. Without the support I’ve received from my husband, family, close friends, and colleagues I would feel very alone and very apprehensive about the decision I made. Knowing how much people believe in me and my skills to make it as a business owner is just so inspiring! Sure, I have days where I have my doubts, but all in all, I have mostly positive thoughts about pushing through this transition and it’s challenges to get to the other side of it and feel successful.”
