Once upon a time (this is not a fairytale)
I was a poly sci and communications double major at Boston College.
I was a real estate finance lawyer in New York City and Los Angeles.
I was a yoga teacher at a prestigious yoga studio.
I was a small business owner failure.
I was Vice President at a high yield debt fund.
I traded in six figures for sticky fingers, dirty diapers and lots of crying. Clearly I prefer to get paid nothing for doing everything.
Now
I take great comfort in the quote “not all who wander are lost.”
I am exhausted.
I am enlightened.
I am disgusted.
I am amazed.
I am frustrated.
I am more in love than I ever thought possible.
I am a mom.
Great blog! Makes me feel better to know I’m not the only one… Do you ever think about going back to work? I’m at a moment of crisis right now: don’t know what the hell to do with my life.
I know, I found your bar exam post. Hope I didn’t get you down because I truly feel your pain (the bar and the searching – that is why I started this blog). There is no easy answer, that much I know for sure. But if you find the answer, promise to message me straightaway!!!
