My whole 34 years of life I have lived in Iowa. Since I was a teenager I wanted to move and I just couldn’t pull the trigger on it! I am now in the best psychological health of my life and I have been planning it for a long time and I moved to colorful Colorado! I am in love with the mountains, all the sunshine, less humidity, all the healthy outdoor activities and much more…

I have been here for about 2 1/2 weeks now and things are absolutely swell! Fears that I once had about my depression possibly making moving too hard and scary, or that I would feel intense horrible loneliness and sadness if I moved…are absolutely not an issue and not happening at all! I have been ‘so ready’ for a long time that I feel perfectly fine here. I am settling in to my new life and I begin a new job today. I really want to laser focus on my goals and aspirations and I think they will be well received here in Colorado, as it seems like there are more people like me out here. More people with varying interests, health minded, and spiritual people here to help inspire and support me.

My dog, Luna and I have been hiking a lot and I’ve been checking out all the awesome stores that we didn’t have in Iowa 😉 My dog loves that there’s less humidity and this state seems to be more dog friendly than Iowa. She has a huge yard now and we’ve been to absolutely gorgeous dog parks. I am going to get her into dog therapy classes so she can volunteer at hospitals sharing her adorable-ness with those who are in need.

I will do another blog post later about my diet and intermittent fasting as there have been some changes in that arena… Stay tuned 😛
