MY JOURNEY TO WHAT I CALL FREEDOM…..<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

When I was 15 years old my parents told me to get myself a job and start building my resume. I was lucky enough to get a job where I got inspired and motivated every shift. My boss was amazing and gave me the faith that this is how work life is.<\/p>\n

However the older I got the more I realised that I wanted more in life than just the normal. I was dreaming about a life outside Sweden.<\/p>\n

I grew up building my career and when I was 23 years old I had managed to get myself a highly paid job. I had everything you should have “or what everyone tells you that you should have”, I had a high income, a boyfriend, my own apartment that I bought, a dog, a big social life and me and my partner were planning on having our own kids very soon. (There is nothing wrong with living this way, however if you do it for someone else and not yourself it’s time to think again.<\/p>\n

But one day everything changed and I was no longer myself. I was living in a bubble and every day just passed by without me really enjoying it. It was a constant fight to live!! I couldn’t figure out what was wrong and why I was feeling whis way, until one day when it hit me. This was it, this was the life that I would life forever. I had to change it before it was to late…. So I started planning. But it was hard since every day I was sinking deeper and deeper and one day my body had enough. I was diagnosed with Bipolar depression. The way back would be long, dark and lonely, but I would make it out stronger than ever…<\/p>\n

This was hard for everyone in my life and my relationships with friends and boyfriend were in serious danger. I lost many friends and I also lost my boyfriend. Do not get me wrong, he was there and helped me to make me feel loved, but afterwards there was nothing left that we could fix. My amazing teraput told me that I already knew what I needed to do. She was right, so once again I started planning, saving and dreaming. One year later I was ready, I sold my apartment, moved home to mum and dad and booked a trip to Thailand. (Little did I know that this trip would change my life forever).<\/p>\n

I decided to live my dream<\/b> and today I live a life<\/b> that a lot of people only dream about.<\/b><\/p>\n

XOXO<\/p>\n
