Part 5/8:
Quitting my corporate job was terrifying yet liberating. I was afraid of losing my identity, defined solely by my career. But I soon learned that stepping back allowed me to step into a happier, more authentic version of myself. My relationship with my family flourished, and my daughter began to seek my attention more, asking me to play and share moments together. I realized how many precious moments I had missed and how my stress had cast a shadow over our lives.
Now, for the first time in years, I’m not driven by a corporate agenda but by a desire to engage with life meaningfully. I’m not chasing someone else’s idea of success or happiness—I'm defining it for myself. Letting go of the hustle culture, I found joy in simple things: family time, nature, and just being present.
