I have a confession to make.

I moved to Vancouver, B.C. and didn’t tell you.

Except, now I am telling you.

Why the secrecy? It wasn’t really a secret. Everything was just so uncertain. Have you ever had something be a ‘go’ and then ‘not a go’ so many times the people around look dizzy when you talk about it? That was moving to Vancouver for me. My most certain uncertainty. Seriously, we could still be coming back!

In need of change and desiring a beautiful place in a city but with lots of nature, my husband and I decided on Vancouver. At each point where a decision was made, a new piece of information un-did what had been decided. We knew it was what we wanted but could only hope it would work out to be a good move for us.

There has been magic. Don’t let me forget to say…but I will write more about those experiences next time.

For now, let me just say, we packed our life into a POD that still resides in L.A. and drove to Vancouver with one suitcase each. No design but a desire for change. I think the technical term is  LEAP! 

I know you know what I mean.

But the more uncertainty, the more possibility. Right?! The playing field just got a lot larger. There is more room for error, sure, but there is also more room to be met!

So why am I telling you now if there is no certainty? Because there may very well be none for a while. More importantly, I realized I am the stable element, not my environment or my experience. Not a place, and not a thing…it’s me. And it’s love. It’s the love I have in my life. The love I have for my life. The love of my husband, my family, and my friends. The love of my work which I never stopped doing during this whole process. I am fortunate my work is on my laptop and I can do it anywhere!

Love can quell the anxiety of uncertainty and can even make magical moments.

I am still falling in love with uncertainty. (Don’t get me wrong, we still fight.) But, it can be so generously full of surprises and sparkles. I had no idea.

What about you? What change do you want to make? Let’s talk about it.
