Sometimes life makes you hit pause.
A couple of years ago, I stepped away from Waanderlust because I needed to take care of my mental health. It wasn’t an easy decision, but it was the right one.
Then, when I finally started feeling ready to come back…I lost almost everything. Years of business files, designs, notes, templates, and countless hours of work disappeared with a hard drive failure. I won’t lie—that was devastating. There were days I wondered if I should just let it all go.
But the thing about starting over is that it gives you the chance to build something even better.
So that’s what I’m doing.
I’m taking my time this time around. I’m rebuilding my website and business from the ground up, organizing everything the way I always wanted, creating new products, bringing back some old favorites, and putting more care into every little detail than ever before.
This won’t be an overnight relaunch, and honestly, I don’t want it to be.
I want Waanderlust to reflect who I am now—not who I was a few years ago.
Thank you to everyone who has continued to encourage me, ask when I’d be coming back, and believe in this little dream even when I wasn’t sure I could.
Here’s to fresh starts, slow progress, and building something I’m truly proud of. 💜
