\u201cMy next chapter is finally resigning from a job I have held for eight years. I am ready for my transition. No, I am not starting a business or getting another job. I am working towards becoming a fulltime traveler and a content creator. You may wonder why I would reached such a bold decision. Well, I was sick for all of 2021, right out of 2020 lockdown – then bedridden for eight months! Something about working eight years, and bedridden for eight months did something to me. Life is beyond our grasps. I realize I would rather see the world and die, than be at work and still die. I am not dying anytime soon. I am fully recovered, but the entire experience changed me. Work hasn\u2019t been the same since then. I tried to gather my confidence to resign in 2022, but I couldn\u2019t. This year \u2013 this month \u2013 I am doing it! I am taking the leap and doing it afraid. Pray for me.\u201d – Amarachi<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy next chapter is: starting a project I have always wanted to do. I don\u2019t think I am ever going to be fully ready, but I am tired of waiting \u2013 waiting for funds, waiting for people to believe in me. I am going to jump in and make it work.\u201d – Bawa<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy next chapter is: having a conversation with my mother about our poor relationship. We are so different, we argue a lot, we don\u2019t see eye-to-eye. It has been strenuous and stressful. We are both getting older, and I desire to have a very kind and loving relationship with my mother, and I fear if we don\u2019t have that conversation now, we will never be able to fix us, and we will continue to drift away. We are all we have \u2013 both of us. We need to humble ourselves and heal together.\u201d \u2013 Faith <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
