About a year ago, I walked away from a job I genuinely loved.
Not because I wanted to, but because staying was slowly destroying me.
Sometimes circumstances leave you feeling like you have no real choice except to leave something you love and save yourself.
Since then, I’ve been trying to rebuild everything... my confidence, my routine, my sense of direction, my life.
I was raised with the mindset that you grow up, get a job, work hard for someone else, and stay grateful for it. Being self-employed, starting a business, creating something of your own… that was never presented as a real option to me.
So this past year has felt f***ing terrifying.
I’m still figuring it out. Still learning. Still unlearning.
And I know this will sound sooo so so corny...
But for the first time in my life I am starting to feel truly free to be myself and free to actually build something.
