Embracing a Fresh Start: How to Shift Your Mindset After a Break

Hi friends,

It’s been a little while since my last post here, and I wanted to take a moment to share why I stepped away — and why I’m so glad to be back.

Life has a way of reminding us to slow down. For me, the past year has been a time to pause, reflect, and recharge. Between the busyness of everyday life and the energy required to share this urban homesteading journey online, I realized I needed a break to breathe, find my new path, and reconnect with the “why” behind all of this.

Starting from scratch. I gave everything up. My garden, the quail, cavy, rabbits, and my sanity felt threatened. While it wasn't the desired choice, it was a necessary one. Sometimes letting go of the past and grasping onto what is the new future is a hard but eye-opening experience.

That space gave me fresh inspiration and a renewed sense of excitement for what’s ahead.

Now that I’m back, I’m excited to bring you along for:

• New projects I’ve been working on

• Lessons I’ve learned during the break

• Fresh ideas for making city living more sustainable and fulfilling

  
  

Thank you so much for your patience, support, and encouragement. It truly means the world. I can’t wait to share what’s next with you — and I hope you’ll join me as this next chapter unfolds.

Here’s to growth, both in the garden and in life.

— Morgan
