Amazing Erifili! I am like you. I left my 9-5 to grant myself the freedom, time & energy to pursue my inspirations in the moments I have them.

Over the years, I’ve learned that you can put yourself in situations that’ll likely inspire you. Being a world traveler has done wonders for me, for instance.

And on the Derek Sivirs quote, I think of a lot of it is just “fake” pressure we put on ourselves. Fake meaning it’s a societal script, probably based on the legacy apprentice-master model.

Truth is, every single one of us is a multi-dimensional being. We are all eaters, sleepers, walkers, drivers, friends, dog-sitters, grocery-store-shoppers, etc. Is that “too much”? No, you might say.. so why is career different?

I am a World Traveler, Writer, Content Creator, Developer, Designer, Project Manager, Google Maps Reviewer, etc.. You are a Writer, Photographer, Website-Maker, Agency-Builder, etc. There is room for everything. They’re just labels.

And please write more! I appreciate your words. 🙏
