For YEARS, Chris and I have wanted to move out of Ohio and ever since we visited Washington state back in 2014 we thought that is where we would end up. His family lives there and its absolutely BREATHTAKING. But once I started my coaching business and we realized the potential of this business we quickly realized we could take our adventures ANYWHERE. And now, for once in our life, we could actually AFFORD to take our adventures anywhere. While we had always wanted to move out of Ohio the cards (AKA the finances) never played out and here we were stuck in Ohio year after year. Now this business gives us the freedom to basically pick a spot on the map. And go.
So that is what we are going to do. Get rid of everything. Buy a 5th wheel. Pack up our kids and dogs. Bring my business, which by then will completely support our family financially. And head out West. For the road trip and move of a LIFETIME. This doesn't come without a lot of criticism but if you know me by now you know I don't take to heart what many people say anymore. We have a vision and a way to get there (my business!) and we are going to be relentless until we get it. Done living the mold of what we are "suppose" to do.
Anyways, the biggest obstacle right now will be getting rid of our stuff. Seriously. Why do kids have so much stuff?! The last few months I have been trying to take a [semi] minimalist approach to our lifestyle. We don't NEED any of this stuff. It all has to go. But that is so hard after years of accumulation. But I have 15 months to get this in order. So here go.
Right now I am working on the 40 Bags in 40 Days Challenge. Have you heard of it?! It coincides with lent and you are challenged to get rid of 1 bag per day each day. Day 1 was yesterday and I did it. The hardest part of this is finding the time to do it each day and actually sticking to it. I FAIL at every single one of these challenges. But I am determined because the move is coming whether I am ready or not!
So the countdown is on! #TheMillersMoveToMontana in 15 months!
