The extreme freeing feeling I experienced was only brief and likely a glimpse to what you're feeling with the Minimalism Challenge. I still have a lot of weight to drop. Thank you for the well wishes with my work path. I had a very positive experience giving notice of my departure as it turns out there's a way to keep me on contract remote/PT for 6 months with way fewer obligations. My last FT day is this week, while the contract will extend so I can help continue transitioning my projects.
