As I sit in my dream house in Western Australia, looking at the most beautiful view, working from home with my bulldog snoring next to me, I think about how many years I spent dreaming about this life. 💭 My parents raised us three kids with a very strong work ethic; and boy, do we all work hard (probably way too hard, tbh). I started working at 13 years old and had a wide range of jobs…
