Over the past couple of weeks, my heart rate has been on permanent high… running from meeting to meeting, fingers crossed, wishing and hoping… so it’s been tough to find the time to devote to a real update. But I do have some news!

This Thursday I accepted a new position in the city and handed in my resignation at the office I’ve been a part of for almost six years. It was bittersweet. I’ve loved my time there, but this new step will bring me closer to the core of what I really want to do, and for that, I’m truly grateful. It’s not often that I talk about my day job here on the blog… but this felt too big not to share.

I’m full of nervous energy with one more big transition to come, but within it… I’m also beginning to eek out a sliver of peace.

I hesitate to say it out loud… but I can almost feel us beginning to turn a corner. One that’s been just out of reach for a very long time.

2014 was a very hard year for us. In some ways, it was the most rewarding year we’ve had, but it was also a struggle.

After a year of what ifs and maybes, I’m so ready for that corner and the wide world ahead that it hurts. Just that sliver of peace on its own is much more than I’ve had in some time.
