Where Did June Go?
A little life update
June has been a busy month! With moving house and finishing up at my job (including ten days of travelling), I feel like I barely have had a chance to catch my breath.
It’s a little hard to comprehend how three weeks may have passed since I have last posted an article on Medium. Yet here we are.
So, I thought I would give a quick update on what has been happening and my goals for the coming months.
In two days, I will be officially on a 12-month leave of absence from my current employer and starting a new journey of full-time freelance writing. It is still quite daunting, but I am looking forward to having a little more head space to explore all the possibilities.
The other big news is that I have moved back to my parent’s house (temporarily) No idea what the future holds, but I know that it's not feasible to stay where I was living with the current rental market.
This means that I will have a desk and more space to do my own thing🙂
Work-wise I need to find some clients and or article ideas to pitch (and be accepted) to publications.
I am also thinking/ planning on up-skilling and learning SEO. All of my job research keeps pointing to this as a vital skill for anyone wanting to write web content.
My other goal now that I will have a much larger kitchen is to focus on my physical health and diet.
I have never been as fit as I would like, but the last couple of years have made it more challenging to eat well and regularly exercise.
I have noticed the difference and plan on making some changes, so watch this space 🙂.
Today will be short, but please pop in and say hi.
Let me know what topics you are interested in me writing about, and I look forward to seeing where this new adventure takes me!
