Get ready for an episode that will blow your mind. We're diving into the story of how I quit my job before I was actually ready, and let me tell you, it's been quite a journey!

Picture this: when I started my own business, my initial plan was to fly to the US every six weeks to work as a NICU nurse. Can you believe how crazy that sounds? Well, it gets even more interesting. In 2020, I managed to save a whopping $70,000 for our big move. But here's the twist: I wasn't entirely sure if I was ready to give up my beloved work with those tiny, adorable babies.

Then, January 2021 arrived, and I had to make a bittersweet decision: I quit my nursing job and took the plunge into full-time online work. It wasn't an easy choice, but it opened up a world of possibilities.

In this episode, I want to share with you the seven invaluable lessons I learned along the way. Trust me, you'll want to hear these:

1. Embracing a wholehearted commitment: Treating your business as more than just a hobby.
2. Navigating the emotions of transitioning: Mourning the aspects of your old life while embracing new opportunities.
3.  Embracing change and pivoting: How the guest shifted their focus from travel blogging to becoming a social media manager, mentor, and creator.
4.  The importance of community: Finding support, motivation, and connection in the online world.
5. Proactively seeking opportunities: Understanding that success requires actively pursuing and seizing them.
6.  The power of rest: Recognizing that rest is essential for rejuvenation and future growth, countering the exhausting constant hustle.
7. Investing in oneself: Overcoming fear by seeking guidance from those who have achieved what you aspire to, even if it means making significant financial investments.

DM me a number that resonates with you, and let's have an in-depth chat about it on Instagram. So, here's the big question: would you ever consider quitting your current job or maybe even working two jobs to pursue your passion?
