Whew, I felt this! So much of your journey resonates with me, especially the part about alignment not always making sense at first. I’m also in a season of rebuilding on my terms—shifting careers from tech to therapist, redefining what success looks like after breast cancer, and fully stepping into the woman I’m becoming. It feels SO to meet other women on the same path!

I deeply resonate with this! Recovering corporate fashionite here too 🙋🏽‍♀️🤣. Still trying to run from retail as we speak. Thanks for sharing your story!! I’m trying to do the same via my Substack, moreso from the past 4 years specifically where I’ve felt that longing for more after having my first child. And I’m about to launch a new business (had a retail consulting business) helping people build out their ideas - based on the soul searching I’ve been doing. I hope that what we both share shows people that you don’t have to subscribe to what society tells you is normal or stable!! Your voice and perspective are so needed!!
