I want to tell you something I don't say out loud enough. Four years ago I left my job. Not because I had a plan. Not because I was brave. Because I was done. And it was starting to show up at home. Thirty years of showing up for someone else's dream. Thirty years of giving my best hours to a company that was never going to give them back. My husband noticed before I did. The disdain. The exhaustion. The slow drain of it. I was losing my spark, my passion, all that was me. So I left. And then honestly? I drifted. My stepson and his family moved in for five months while they built their house. My daughter had her first baby. Then her second. I became a grandmother. Which is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I mean that completely. 🌺 But somewhere in the middle of the grandkids and the afternoon shifts without my husband and the Netflix and the phone scrolling I felt myself settling into something I wasn't ready for. Like I was letting myself become old before it was time. I still have dreams. Trips we haven't taken. A house on our river property someday. Kayaking. Time. Room to breathe. And finances that need more than one income to get there. So instead of doom scrolling I started looking. Affiliate marketing. Content creation. A community for women in this exact season. That's how Me~ERA was born. Not from a plan. From a decision. This chapter is going to be full. For both of us. That's why I'm here. That's why YOU'RE here. And I'm really glad you are. 🌿 ~Nanette ✨️
