About Me

My journey toward a more intentional, travel-focused lifestyle began in 2019. Despite having a high-paying corporate job and a beautiful home, I felt deeply unfulfilled. I was living paycheck to paycheck, burdened with debt, and physically unwell—constantly sick and carrying extra weight from stress and burnout. My marriage, though amicable, no longer aligned with the person I was becoming. I felt stuck in a life that looked perfect on the outside but felt painfully disconnected on the inside.

That restlessness sparked a radical shift.

​

I made the courageous decision to redesign my life. I lovingly ended my marriage, sold my house and nearly all of my belongings, and moved into a minimalist apartment with just a bed, a couch, and a TV stand. I committed to paying off my debt, and within a year, I was completely financially free. During that time, I also completed a coaching certification program that helped me reconnect with my values, ask deep questions, and open up to new possibilities.

​

Craving freedom and flexibility, I left my corporate job and embraced the world of remote work and digital entrepreneurship. Thanks to the pandemic’s shift to online opportunities, I found a fully remote job that allowed me to work from home while building my coaching practice on the side. The ability to work from anywhere opened doors I hadn’t even imagined.

​

After a year of balancing both, I realized I wanted full freedom of time—and eventually, freedom of geography. I stopped taking coaching clients and focused on growing my virtual job into a sustainable income source. Then came the next exciting step: I launched The Mindful Drift Co., my travel-inspired Etsy shop, which quickly became a creative outlet and an additional revenue stream.

​

Today, I live a location-independent lifestyle with full control over my schedule. I'm healthier, happier, and aligned with a life I intentionally created—one rooted in wellness, freedom, and global exploration.

If you're dreaming of leaving the 9-to-5 grind, pursuing a lifestyle of travel and remote work, or starting over with purpose and passion, know that it’s absolutely possible. Your journey to freedom can start with a single bold step.
