Updated December 4, 2018
I have some HUGE news to share with you all. As of yesterday, I will no longer be teaching. I quit my day job to become a full time blogger. This is a decision I did not take lightly, and I have a million emotions running through me right now.
Watch my video to hear my story. I go over the story of my blog, my career, where they intersect, and how I got to where I am today. I’m keeping the text at a minimum today because the video is long. Hope you enjoy!
Like I said, this is a new chapter and I have a long way to go. Again, thank you so much for your support over the years. I can’t believe this is real life.

So excited for you. I did the same thing almost 3 years ago and it was the best decision I ever made. I love what I do, I’m much happier. I love having the freedom and being able to create my own schedule.

I think it’s amazing that you’re making this leap, Meg. It’s been such an honor to watch your blog grow since 2009, and I’m so excited for you in this new leg of the journey.
Christina says
Happy Birthday and Best Wishes on your leap of faith! I’m a newish follower (about a year) and I still love all of the content! I especially appreciate the dupes since I can’t afford high end prices for every skincare and makeup product I use – I have to pick and choose. FYI, started following you through Veronika’s Blushing.
Have a great week!

Forgot to mention: I’m from San Antonio so, #teambreakfasttacos all the way!
