Now that we’ve told everyone we’re officially moving to the Sunshine Coast in Feb… the emotions are really sinking in.
Excitement? Absolutely.
But also this ache that sits in your chest when you know a huge chapter is closing.
We’ve spent the last couple of weeks catching up with family and friends — and we’ll keep doing that right up until we leave.
Hugs feel heavier.
Conversations feel deeper.
You pay attention a little differently when you know time is ticking.
And even though the move isn’t until Feb, everything already feels like it’s shifting.
Jesse has full-time work lined up up there, in a place where he’s not just another number.
Where he’s valued.
Heard.
Respected.
And the fact that his workmates have become family in just two months says everything.
Watching him come home actually HAPPY… not drained, not defeated, not overworked… that alone makes this move feel right in every way.
As for me, I’ll be stepping into casual work - choosing balance, choosing peace, choosing me this time.
A version of life where I can give 110% at work because I’m not burnt out outside of it.
Big change never comes neatly wrapped.
It’s messy, emotional, overwhelming and beautiful all at once.
But this next chapter?
It feels strong.
It feels aligned.
It feels like the start of something really, really good.
