Jessica's Bold Move: Redefining Family Life in Portland

We don't want her to have that feeling of need and want. And then the other thing we're talking about we're dealing with now is stuff.
Have you ever felt stuck in a rut, yearning for a fresh start? Jessica and her husband did, and they decided to take a leap of faith. After nearly a year of contemplation, Jessica accepted a job in Portland, uprooting her family for a chance at a different life. In this episode of 'Birds In A Tree', she opens up about the fears and hopes driving their decision.
She talks about wanting more for their two-year-old daughter, away from the materialistic pressures of their current environment. The move isn't just about changing locations; it's about embracing a lifestyle that aligns with their values. Jessica's story is a candid look at the emotional rollercoaster of making such a significant change. She discusses the importance of communication with her husband, as they navigated career shifts, financial planning, and the inevitable anxieties that come with moving across the country.
Their journey highlights the courage it takes to pursue a better life, even when the future is uncertain. If you're considering a major life change or simply curious about how others handle such transitions, this episode offers valuable insights and inspiration.
