Hello – I am happy you are here. My name is Crystal. I am many things but let’s start with the stats most people tend to list…
- I am a mom (7 year old daughter – literally my real life princess 👑 )
- I am divorced (was married for 10 years, it didn’t work out 💍)
- I work full time (career woman – I lead people)
- I am in my mid 30s
I previously started a blog in 2016 but life started to life and my blog got away from me. But, I’m back, this time for the long haul! I felt compelled to share my journey as I wish I had others to look to for the same throughout the years. More recently, I’ve been extremely cognoscente and curious as to my life. What I want it to look like, feel like, remember it as. I’ve found interest in many things but the biggest is curating a life ease, joy, and comfort for me and my daughter. That led me to an aha moment of knowing without doubt that I want financial independence. And I want to retire early. DING DING DING, enters this concept and movement of FIRE (financial independence retire early). There’s a ton of information out there on this topic but for me, I’m focused on really curating that with a lifestyle of other interests coupled in. How to be financially independent, where to start, what about life for now while I’m not financially independent (travel, having experiences for my daughter as she grows up, career acceleration, being a great friend, finding love again, doing things I’m passionate about, showing up for my family etc.)??? All questions that have led to clarity. I’ll be detailing and posting about each step in my journey to financial independence (along with some of the other interests mentioned) so stay tuned and buckle up for the ride!
Yours Truly,
Crystal
