Finding Your Path: A Journey to Happiness

I’m on an exciting and transforming journey to create the life I’ve always dreamed of. In the past, I held onto who I thought I was. But now, I am focused on becoming the person I am meant to be.

For the last ten years, I searched for my path. I spent a lot of time working in kitchens, because I couldn’t figure out what I wanted to do. Then, in 2023, everything changed. I took a hard look at my life and realized it was time for something big to shift. So, I made a bold decision—I handed in my two-week notice.

Looking back, it might have seemed like a rash decision, but deep down, I knew it was the right one. I was content, but I wasn’t fulfilled. I had so much more I wanted to do, so much more to give. I wish I could tell you the transition was smooth, but it wasn’t. The day I quit my job, I didn’t have a plan. I didn’t know what was next—I just knew I had to make a change.

During that period of uncertainty, I worked at a driving range, at an accounting firm and delivery driving. i also took some accounting courses, but stop those when I lost my accounting job. I was devastated the day my boss told me he was downsizing, but it became a turning point for me. It forced me to ask myself: What am I passionate about? What makes me excited to wake up in the morning?

The answer came quickly: Fitness, writing, food, health, music…. the list goes on, but nothing said accounting so I was okay with letting that one go. I decided to dive into things that I love. I considered personal training, looked into fitness courses, but they didn’t quite align with what I was looking for.

Then, a conversation with some friends changed everything. They suggested I look into a nutrition course. I checked out the program, and it clicked. I signed up, and that was the start of my nutrition journey.

The road hasn’t always been easy, but it’s been exactly what I needed. I’ve learned that stepping out of my comfort zone and taking risks is necessary to get my life on track. I didn’t take the most conventional path, but it’s been working for me.

That said, I want to be clear: Don’t follow my path! Make your own. You’ll make mistakes—just like I did—but that’s part of the journey. Keep going, pick yourself up when you fall, and stay focused on your dreams. You’ve got this!

It won’t always be easy, but trust me—it will be worth it.

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Cheers!

There Is Excitement in the New!

I have always loved new experiences and adventures. I love cultures and languages and getting out in nature. This last season has been a crazy roller coaster of a ride, from dealing with the pressures of life and the changes that are happening. I was overwhelmed and felt like I lost my mojo. But I just kept pressing on and kept moving forward.

Sometimes you just need to put one foot in front of the other and just hope that you get through. Get through the heaviness, the pain, the anxiety, the depression, and the fear.

Life is a wonderful thing, but there is nothing guaranteed except that there is a day that we will be born and a day that we will die. All we have is a short time in between and that is called life. I have realized how short life truly is. I mean, I have already been on this earth for over 30 years and I cannot believe how quickly that thirty years has gone.

This blog is new and there is so much promise of what it could be. But in the newness, there is also a daunting feeling of what if I don’t have anything important to say. What if nobody reads it or what if nobody likes what I write.

There will always be those what-ifs in life, but what if it didn’t matter what anybody else thought? What if you do it because you want to and it makes you happy to get your thoughts out? What if that was the only reason you did it? Would that be enough?

It is for me! I am not trying to prove myself to anyone anymore. Life is too short!

I invite you on this journey along with me and maybe, just maybe, you will find what you were meant to be as well. That is if you don’t already know.

Have a wonderful day!

Cheers!
