🌊 From Hustle to Coastal Harmony: My Work-Life Wake-Up Call 🐾 This Bank Holiday, the fossil hunters were out in force, come rain or shine! 🦕☁️ It made me reflect on just how much my mindset has shifted since moving to the coast. When I lived just outside London, everything felt like a race. Deadlines were constant, and the pressure to be “always on” meant weekends and bank holidays often blurred into workdays. It was just… go, go, go. 💻💼 I went into Property to do less work 🤣 although building a new business takes time & will give me more time freedom to enjoy the things I love. I’m halfway there, moving to an amazing place by the beach was one of my 5 year goals, building a Commercial Conversion & Holiday Let business is well on its way 👌 These days, I still work (I’ll admit it, I’m a bit of a workaholic 🤣), but now life comes first, and work fits around it. Early starts, late finishes, and rainy-day catch-ups give me the freedom to live more intentionally. The benefits? ✅ Quality beach time with my dog (who’s obsessed with chasing pebbles, she even has a silver replacement tooth to prove it 🤣) ✅ Discovering hidden local gems, often to get away from the crowds ✅ Paddleboarding, sea swims, and hopefully some kayaking soon 🚣‍♀️ It’s no longer about working for the weekend, it’s about creating a rhythm that works for me. Too many people I’ve known or heard about never made it to “retirement plans.” Life’s short. Waiting for “someday” just doesn’t cut it anymore. Oh, and if you’ve seen the RNLI boot dogs, how brilliant are they? 😄🐶 💬 I’m curious, have you found a sustainable work-life balance, or are you still in the 24/7 hustle? I’d love to hear your thoughts 👇 #WorkLifeBalance #CoastalLiving #FlexibleWork #DigitalNomadLife #EntrepreneurLifestyle #BeachWalks #LifeByTheSea #RemoteWork #FreedomToChoose #MentalHealthMatters #LiveIntentionally
