Flora Hibbs
Becoming a Wayward Wanderer
Hey! I'm Flora!
I've worked dozens of jobs in my life but none of them really felt like a good fit. There's something deep in my bones that rebels against the authority of working for a boss. For a long time I hated work, but I kept telling myself I "had to do it" because otherwise I couldn't afford rent.
After years of misery, I finally asked myself "what if I just didn't, though?" I have a lot of friends and family who would probably be happy to let me crash with them. What would it look like if I only did things that brought me joy?
Well, I'm finding out! I quit my job and moved out of my apartment to pursue a transient lifestyle where I spend time with people I care about, make lots of art, and teach Nonviolent Communication workshops! I'm thinking of this as a kind of "trust fall with the universe."
