I’ve been trying to get out of my job for a while (no benefits, overworked, not being paid my worth etc.) with no luck. The single positive of my job was wfh so with any downtime I had in my day I used to start an etsy shop last summer. I’ve gotten to a financial point where I no longer needed my other job and was finally able to put in my 2 weeks after working there for over 2 years.
It’s been almost a month now and my partner has commented so many times about how much happier I seem. I realized I hadn’t felt any sense of anxiety the last few days which is something I typically struggle with daily. I feel so thankful to have the freedom now to be productive on my own watch and finally be able to put my life first instead of work.
