Moving: Grief, Freedom and the refresh I needed.
LIfe Update: yes I am going to be that person.
After a strange week of landlord negotiations, city paperwork and lots of overthinking me and my family moved into a new home. This wasn't really planned and it happened in less than 36 hours.
I will spare you the details.
What I do want to focus on is some of the things I have noticed as I have moved into a new space and some things to reflect on whenever you make your next move. Your guiding question for today is
HOW CAN I HONOR WHAT MY OLD SPACES HAVE DONE FOR ME
Grief Comes in many forms and yes you can Grieve your old spaces.
Right now I am in the process of grieving my old space. While it was not the best space for me, my family, and my business it was a place that helped me get through a lot of tough times.
One of those is the COVID 19 pandemic. It was in that house that I went through some of the worst mental-health crises’ I can remember. I am thankful that that house allowed us to be who we were inside it. I'm honored that it can be part of my story.
That home was where I had my biggest heartbreak. I thank it for keeping me warm at night in the moments I felt the darkest and most alone.
That house was the first place I transitioned to post-college. I thank it for being a stepping stone into new and better things.
I am thankful that that home for 5 years kept my family warms out of the Colorado snow.
Thank you.
Time to move on to bigger and better things
In this new space, I am incredibly thankful that I get to have an office that is in its own room. WOW. You don't know how big that is for me!
I have Natural lighting WOW!
I have so much room for activities! Now I need a decorator for my space haha.
For me this space doesn't just symbolize a new room it is a metaphor for how my business is growing and how the space around me is evolving to fit my mindset.
To me, this is a clear example that the universe is saying
“you are outgrowing your space, you are moving onto bigger and better things”
Since this move was so out of the blue, it makes me think that there was a greater purpose to it. There was meaning to it.
Here to bigger and better things!
