I dealt with a deteriorating relationship with my live-in boyfriend; a prestigious, high-pressure public health job I dreaded showing up for every day; and the death of a close friend.
I signed up for the course and, that summer, quit my job to focus on decluttering full time.
Finding satisfaction and freedom in work that 'sparks more joy'Emotionally, I knew that leaving my public health job was the right decision.
In my first year of business, I earned less than a quarter of my public health salary.
I consulted on public health assignments, and even temporarily took another full-time public health job while I continued building the decluttering business on evenings and weekends.
