After losing my job in LTC due to mandates, I started a nonprofit in the local food sector. My income has been limited, but my husband covers the bills, allowing me flexibility during this phase. I benefit from wholesale pricing and growing our own food to save money.

In January, needing more income and with my business facing limitations, I began an intensive training program assisting people with developmental disabilities. I joined an incredible organization that doesn't mandate shots in our region and pays above-average wages. It's filled with talented professionals who have been cast out by other organizations due to their choices.

Currently working as a casual employee, I'm seeking a sleep night position that better suits my needs. The role involves helping clients with their nightly routines and morning needs, while also allowing time to sleep. The environment is caring and nonviolent, and the work is rewarding. My days will be 100% free for my homestead and family if this comes to pass.

Initially, I started a business to achieve flexibility for homeschooling and homesteading, but it often took me further from that goal. Now, I'm considering a night job that allows me to prioritize my family and pursue online content without financial pressure.

It's essential to remain open to new opportunities that align with our personal goals instead of feeling stuck in a particular path.
