I am going through the EXACT same thing right now. I’m 25 and leaving my steady-paying job to move to France for a year to write and figure out what it is I really want to do. And the scary part is, I’m not sure I’m going to come back with any answers! My current boss gave me a bit of reassuring advice: she said, “Just figure out what you want to do for the next 5 years. Don’t worry about the rest of your life.” I plan to explore and throw myself into everything I love, and trust that my path will become clear through action. I look forward to reading your updates!

You are not alone, love. I will say that I am starting to take the stance that the part of myself that ditches my 3 mile run to drink one (or 3) too many glasses of wine, talk too loud and stay up too late at night after telling myself I would do none of these things IS my perfect self. That day. Keep writing! You’ve already found so much on this journey…you will find what you’re looking for!

it might take more than 6 months. have patience. and especially don’t return to doing something you already know you don’t like, that’s a step backwards. continue to try new things. be free.
