Hey Friends, I’m back!
It’s been a wild ride, and I’m here to fill you in on where life’s taken me over the past year. Grab some popcorn because 2024 was one hell of a rollercoaster that I do not want to ride again!
First off, 2024 started on a high note! I decided it was time to cut ties with my old job (good riddance!) and break free from a toxic work environment that was literally draining me—mentally and physically. So, I picked up a part-time gig to give myself some breathing room while I finished my master’s degree. And guess what? I DID IT! As of February 2024 you are looking at a new MBA Graduate. 😁
With that milestone under my belt, it was time to find my next big thing—my dream career. Cue the endless interviews and the near-miss offers. But then, I got the call from the company I had been eyeing. Three rounds of interviews later, I landed the job! Everything was finally falling into place, and I was pumped—new job, new chapter, and all the excitement that comes with it.
But life, as always, had other plans. Enter: The Summer of Struggles. My husband and I were living the dream—just the two of us, chasing our goals. That was until reality hit like a ton of bricks. For anyone who owns their own business, you know the highs feel amazing, but the lows? Yikes. When the money stops rolling in, you’re left chasing it down. It’s not pretty, but it’s part of the ride.
And while we’re talking about challenges, let’s be real about relationships. Marriage isn’t all sunshine and rainbows. For us, the last couple of years have been a mix of joy and frustration, especially as we’ve been trying to grow our family. We’ve been doing the whole “not trying, but secretly trying” dance, and let me tell you, it’s been a tough mental game. But we’re still here, still hopeful, and still working toward that dream.
In the next few posts, I’ll be diving deep into how my husband and I continue pushing forward toward our future goals. We’ll talk finances, relationships, mental health, and I’ll throw in some fun escapes we took in 2024 to recharge.
Stick with me—this is just the beginning. Let’s do this!
With love,
Kait M.
