First Introductions: Are you thriving or just surviving? Here's my advice...

You’re 17-year-old self is looking at you. Are they surprised at what they see? 

Mine is.

Man was I a lost soul back then.

But of course, I was, weren’t you? Although I thought that I had life figured out.

I didn’t. Pretty sure I still don’t.

You know what though, I am so grateful for that.

I am a believer in that silly saying, “everything happens for a reason.”

There is nooo way I would be where I am today without that lost soul.

Around that time, I met my now husband. He told me he loved me almost instantly. He also shared that his dreams were to become a farmer one day.

That’s when I realized I shared that dream.

7 years and three kids later, I’ve decided to live that dream.

Out of high school I went from a dog kennel attendant to a 7-year career as a home appraiser while working on a college degree, just to quit to be a stay-at-home mom, now farmer. 

This time last year I had no clue HOW or WHAT I would raise and sell but I knew I wanted to share, whatever it was, with my community.

This year, after milking our first dairy cow, I knew. I knew THIS is what I was meant to do.

The healing of my kids’ immune systems was an even bigger motivation.

Are you living your dream?

Are you working on living your dream?

Are you still figuring out your dream?

Maybe you forgot you had dreams?

Whichever way, I get it. Zero judgement from me, always.

Something that has kept me going is that I want my kids to be able to be themselves and make their own happiness.

As parents, you and I seem to put everything else first. And that’s okay!

But I’m here to remind you that if you feel STUCK it may be time to reevaluate.

And it is NEVER TOO LATE TO REEVALUATE!

 I did. I still am!

I would LOVE if you’d shoot me an email OR comment below and let me know where your life has taken you and what your goals look like. 

With Love,

Halie
