Wake And Radiate

a chapter closed 🥹

the emotional journey of the last two weeks has been so real. leaving a stable job to take a chance on yourself is SCARY but I couldn't just keep letting myself live on autopilot, in an office and at a desk 40 hours a week. I wanted to wake up feeling excited about the day instead of counting the hours to 5 pm or to the weekend or the next day off.

the whole idea behind this page comes from my favorite book where the main character encourages a man who's been living the same routine for years to step outside of his comfort zone, telling him to “make each day a new horizon" and that idea has stuck with me… Wakeandradiate has never just been about smoothies, hikes, pretty sunsets… it’s about waking up and choosing to make every day feel more alive!!!

so here’s to a brand new chapter!! I have no idea exactly where it's going to lead, but I know it's the direction I've been wanting to go for a long time. ☀️
