The moment my life changed forever

Watch the entire journey unfold from Episode 1 here:    • My Full Garden Story   One year ago, I walked away from a 15-year career in the corporate world. My goal was simple: to trade spreadsheets and KPIs for a quiet, productive life in my semi-detached garden. Today marks my one-year anniversary. Looking back, the garden has grown exactly as planned, but the truth is, my mind hasn't always followed the same path. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the "corporate hangover"—that lingering feeling of needing to be "always on"—and how the slow, patient pace of nature has been the only thing capable of curing it. From the battle with bindweed to the reality of slug-eaten peas, I’m sharing the raw, messy, and rewarding truth of what a year of freedom actually looks like. In this video: The transition: Leaving the office vs. finding peace in a small garden. The "Corporate Hangover": Why learning to "just be" is harder than it looks. One year of lessons: What worked, what failed (and why the slugs won this round). Looking ahead: My new plan for soil health, worm bins, and garden-made "weed tea."

It’s still rooted in the garden, but it’s not about how-to gardening—it’s about everything the garden makes me think about. These videos are slower, more personal, and cover topics like simple living, lifestyle changes, and what it means to build a calmer life outside the 9-5 routine:    • The Real Talk: Life After Corporate   NEW HERE ?
