I quit my job today.
I suppose I should note that both my husband and I quit our jobs today.
We were two years into what was sure to be two successful MBA level careers at industry leader E & J Gallo Winery in Modesto, CA. But, we got sick of looking at cube walls and double monitors all day. If this was what success looked like, we weren't sure we wanted it. So, we're stepping off the corporate leadership path even though every decision we've made has led us to this place.
We have an inkling of an idea of what we're going to do with all of our newfound spare time. But I'd be lying if I said the business plan was complete. My folks bought a 120 acre ranch in Vacaville, CA last year and we're going to move there and reconnect with a slower pace of life.
We may start a butcher shop selling locally raised meat. We may start a business hosting weddings at this gorgeous property. Maybe we'll start a CSA. I have approximately one million more ideas where those came from.
Stay tuned as I share our journey from the corporate fast track to something a little bit slower.
