Two weeks ago, I left my job and started this.
I expected this to be easy, and while it has been freeing, it’s been overwhelming as well. I’ve overbooked myself, over-committed myself, over-scheduled myself. I’ve been learning a lot and giving myself the space to rethink…well, absolutely everything.
Right now, I have no real morning routine, day routine, or evening routine. I’m exploring new places to work and new ways of doing things. I’m re-dreaming everything and falling in love with life in so many ways.
So apologies for the silence while I’m settling in from this story. Trust me, there will be some clear, sunny skies ahead.

Looks awesome! I’m so glad it’s going so well thus far, minus the over-working – but lots of business is better than none :)
That is exactly how I am feeling right now. I used to work in a routinely manner: wake up, school, work, sleep, repeat. Now that I’m done with school and I’ve quit my last two jobs no day is like any other day. I work when I want to work and I wake up and sleep when I think it’s right.
I hope you don’t overexhaust yourself working and that you keep on dreaming and taking risks. I think that is how we learn things that we would never learn about.
You can do it!! I think it is amazingly cool that you’ve embarked on this project! I’ve felt very disconnected with blogging and I feel like that bug is def going around. I cannot wait to see where this all takes you!
Best of luck, my dear. Everything seems impossible until it is done :) xx, e
Looking forward to your alternate-employment stories! Let me know how it’s going
