So on point as usual my dear ♡ I recently quit a job that I've been dragging on for long and I don't regret any of it - it took me so long to listen to that urge, but also to find the conditions and safety net to jump. Sometimes it takes deep listening, courage, but also the material conditions which we can by all means create, if only we are aware of the deep desire and willing to respond to it.

I am so excited for all the beauty that will be born of this renewal of yours ♡

Yes, definitely understand the need of the safe transition. And I want more stories of successful transitions, that once you take the leap - new doors open up. I'm also really excited for your new adventures, Gabi! ♡

Thank you! I have been having feelings like this about one of my consulting projects. It has been the primary source of monetary support for our family, hence the struggle with "loss." I know what is on the other side has so much potential to be beautiful and more authentically me. I just have a deep fear of that not being able to support my family. Thank you for the encouragement!

This is definitely real! We can work with our fear (how can we create work that is meaningful AND supports us? we deserve both), and at the same time slowly work towards that liberation that will invite more meaning and fulfilment in our lives. Sometimes it's really really hard, and there is a lot of stuckness. But I want to believe that there's always a way out of a situation.
