Trusting myself is something I’ve been actively working on for about four years now. It’s taken me a long time to see myself as a capable adult who doesn’t need hand-holding.

Sitting here right now and looking at my current situation, day to day activities, and future plans, I have never felt so sure of myself and perfectly content with where I am. There’s no panic or uncertainty around where I am or what I should be doing.

What’s Changed?

We’re moving

This October, Steve and I are moving to Los Angeles. We don’t have much of a reason other than “because we can”. He and I both have full-time remote jobs that we’re taking with us, and we’re looking at apartments all over the place, because we won’t be restricted by commutes into offices.

We absolutely love Colorado and can definitely see ourselves coming back one day. But we’re just not ready to be done looking around for the place we 100% want to plant our roots. Colorado will always be here, and since my sister, brother-in-law, and our infant nieces are out here, we’ll be back plenty to remind ourselves of how much we love it (and how cute our twin nieces are).
