Yep... You can move away, travel, and start a new life. Here's how I did.

  • work, eat, sleep, repeat. We tend to live in this never-ending routine. Every day is the same and we feel like we have no control over our own lives in this capitalist society. What if you CAN take your life into your own hands? pick up and move to where you WANT to live? and travel while you start your new life? The average person can't afford to live that freely, right? ...no ❤. Because I did it.
    I'm giving you full honesty when I tell you how I knew it was time to leave, how I decided where to move, how I could afford to take the leap, and what happened after I left. YES there is risk. But if you live your life never letting yourself step into the unknown, are you really living?
    Everyone thinks only wealthy people can afford to control their own lives. But maybe there's a way that the average person can OWN their own life again. It's not as complicated as society has led us to believe. The only thing stopping you is fear. Seriously.

    I just did this moving from Utah to Southern California because I wanted to live near the beach and Disneyland! I didn’t have a job when I left but found one the day after I got here! Only problem is that job let me go after 4 months so I am now on the hunt again. Still worth it to be in this warm weather though!

    Hey Crystal! Little late on the comment, but I wanted to say Thanks!!! I was literally living the exact same life as you were, never going somewhere else, never being excited about what I’m doing or where I live, working a job I don’t love! It was like watching an identical version of my life!!! You inspired me to resign from my job, pack my bags and move across the country! I’m nervous, but super excited to push the reset life button. Again, thank you! Watching this really inspired me and made me realize it’s never to late to have a fresh start in life😊

      I'm a big believer in following your intuition. If you feel a pull to do something or be somewhere, there's a reason for it. And sometimes you don't find out what that reason is until after you do it. Things fall into place the way they're meant to be. Don't worry about what * could * happen. As long as you always follow your gut instincts, you're on the right path. Don't let fear keep you from starting the best years of your life. 💗
