I laughed at the "gross" too - So true and so good 😂
Since leaving my corporate job, I look at time and money in completely different way...I enjoy volunteering but since moving to working for myself, I have had to recalibrate how much I volunteer, whilst I get these businesses started...These business always have the community and their impact in mind though and will hopefully help me do much more for the community in the long term...If it were not for the capitalist society we live in and having a mortgage to pay, I would happily volunteer anytime...
Great words Nat. I laughed at the “gross” in GDP - how true! As a single person on a “lumpy freelance income” it can definitely be tricky. Volunteering a little for an NFP assisting unhoused people on the Sunshine Coast/gubbi gubbi country before I left has really prompted me to look at how I can spend more time volunteering this year. Far more valuable than my paid work currently 💛

Oh yea, I totally get it. It's always about rolling with life's changes - and it seems to change so often. 🧡

So gross hey?!
That sounds like it was an awesome experience. I'm sure you'll find loads of good stuff to do after your move.
“I love skulking around in these unquantifiable shady areas” makes you sound very bad ass!
Which of course you are in the best way!
🤣 😎 🥷 Hahah! Totally!!
