🥹I am loving this part of your life journey. So many detours, re-routing, bridges that kept you connected or offered freedom to get away. Bridges you tried to keep erected and finally those bridges you had to burn only for you to emerge out of the ashes like a beautiful phoenix. I am in awe of you and I pray I have the same strength to find the inner peace you are LIVING right now in this present life! Congratulations on unlocking your best life. 👏🌅🫶

I love your vulnerability. P.S I believe in garages too :-). Looking forward to hearing more about your move to Mexico and how you are navigating life there. Keep sharing.

First of all Danielle, happy belated birthday! Your story is beautiful and we are quite similar. Literally.

Divorced…check✅

Moved from a very big house ✅

Now living in a 3bdrm townhouse ✅

Thinking about further downsizing …in progress

Thinking about moving to 🇲🇽…also in progress

Letting go has a new meaning for; open doors, new experiences, bigger territory, growth, resilience, and above all knowing that the Almighty has already made sure that I’m taken care of. Wishing you the best and looking forward to more of your stories.
