Moving to a new city forced me to create a simpler life
Hitting reset when you need it most.
Moving to a new city can be an exciting start.
It can be an opportunity not only to throw out physical things that no longer serve you, but it can be a way to hit the reset button in other parts of your life.
When you move to a new physical space, you can create new routine spaces that work for a new phase of life. You can focus your energy and attention on what works for you.
Moving to a new city is helping me reset and get a do-over of sorts.
