I have been fortunate to have opportunities come my way and own several businesses. Fast forward four years and sold the businesses I had to re-evaluate my priorities and make changes. I did not receive a pink slip but sold my business and took time off to consider what do I want to do now? I took a a year off and
enjoyed the time to consider what could be my options. Looking at my values I wanted to be home for my children and that was very important to me. I decided to go back to school. For six months I immersed myself back into the books and dove into the challenge. My husband and I led a modest life and enjoyed going out. We have had to make fun on a budget be creative and resourceful. The changes we have made have made an impact on our family. Luckily I enjoy cooking and have had to cut corners with grocery shopping. We have shopped thrift stores for years and the adjustment was not a big deal. We have been
able to save. Before if you wanted to buy something you just did. Now it's a matter of a want or a need.
I feel grateful for what I have and in time it will turn around. It's a matter of keeping positive and looking for the better and not the worst.
