The person in this photo had no idea what was coming next.
I was sat in the car leaving the office having just been made redundant after more than 20 years in the same industry. If I'm honest, I felt a bit lost.
I didn't know what the next chapter would look like.
I didn't know what opportunities would come my way.
And I certainly didn't think I'd end up involved in the travel industry š
At the time, all I knew was that life suddenly felt very different to how I'd imagined it.
Looking back now, redundancy was one of those moments that forced me to be more open-minded.
Since then, I've started businesses I never expected to start, met people I would never otherwise have met, travelled more than I thought possible and created additional income streams alongside everything else I do.
It hasn't always been easy, but it has reminded me of something important...
Sometimes the things that feel like the end of one chapter are actually the beginning of another.
If you'd told me then what the next few years would look like, I honestly wouldn't have believed you.
And for that, I'm incredibly grateful š„°
