WHERE IT ALL STARTED
Like many women, probably like you, I went to college, started off in a professional career, and eventually started my own company. In 15 years, I built something that most women would be proud of. But in 2017, what I built felt hollow. What used to fill me up, now left me with a feeling empty.
More often than not, I didn’t even have the energy to get out of bed. I was agitated, anxious, and often fell victim to the conversations running in my head. And then, I had an Elizabeth Gilbert Eat, Pray, Love moment. In the book, she wrote:
Hadn’t I wanted this? I had actively participated in every moment of the creation of this life. So why didn’t I see myself in any of it? The only thing more impossible than staying was leaving.
