I found myself in a dark place at 42. My SO, a lawyer, was in narco rehab for the third time. I was in debt to my eyeballs doing up a house to sell (which he had leveraged without telling me) and my freelance work dried up with $122 in the bank. The house was going into foreclosure, just as the market started crashing. It was all I could do to stay sane-just one step in front of the other.
Then, just as I could see no further, I decided to give up everything and move to NYC where I had always wanted to live. Through friends, I got one of my most significant breaks career-wise because I went into it with an open mind. I’ve never looked back ever since. I’ve had other significant difficult moments along the way but my experiences have only strengthened me further.
Stay open to possibilities. This is only a moment of transformation.
Thanks so much for sharing this!
