this is your yearly reminder to be brave. act on that crazy idea. or dream that seems out of reach. do that thing that's been weighing heavily on your heart. whether it's moving, starting a business, going on a trip, doing something solo, if it's a personal thing.. it's time to be brave and.. just do the damn thing ✨
today is my ultimate [so far!] brave day. this is my forever Boston day. 10 [t e n!!] years ago today, I had two suitcases and one carry on filled with my belongings, flew 3k miles to Massachusetts and stepped into a state I had never been before, a city I had never been to and a place where I knew no one to start a new chapter of life.
y'all -- this is how "crazy" I was for moving there: I didn't even have an apartment and most of the ones I set up to view were snatched before I even arrived 🥴 my parents were with me for a week and I literally secured my apartment the day before they left. then a few days later I started my new job in Boston's financial district -- that I definitely got lost going to for a few days until I figured my route out 🤦🏻♀️ this small town country girl had a little bit of a rough start trying to adapt to a city.
it was scary as hell. but.. it was one of the greatest adventures of my life. I lived there for 4.5 years before deciding to move back home. I miss this city every stinkin' day, it's always a part of my heart. and am so, so glad I decided to stay instead of turning around and heading back home 💚
