I made a lot of money today.
It’s been my absolute dream to retire early.
My husband is very status quo and was fighting the idea for years. He wasn’t willing to live frugally so I thought to myself, better build something that’ll give me the money and freedom I want.
We’re separated and going to be divorcing this year.
Meanwhile I’ve been working on my business for years.
And today I think… I think I realized I’m living my dream.
I’m traveling to be on site with a client today, and I realized it’s the first city I had my first job in.
I made more today—TODAY… as in, in a single DAY—than I did that entire year of full time work. And almost as much as I made in *two* years of full time work, working for someone else.
Oh my god.
I have no one to tell. I whispered it to strangers I passed on the street, but I want to be able to live it with my whole heart and say it with my whole chest.
I’m still getting my financial footing under me, so I’m no where near FIRE yet, but I’m on my way.
Phew girl, I’m on my way.
Edit to add: I’ve heard stories about people posting and going to bed and having no idea the traction it would gain over night but this is the first time it happened to me 💜 I am blown away and so happy to spend my morning receiving this and responding! THANK YOU!
