The past year has been a rollercoaster, especially with how things ended at my previous company around Easter. It was a tough and frustrating time, where I felt let down and overwhelmed by changes beyond my control, compounded by being silenced from discussing it publicly. However, since then, I've found myself in a much better place, starting fresh at a new company that truly aligns with my values and passion for tech.

Earlier this year, I created a separate Instagram account for my car to avoid spamming my personal one, and it’s been a fun creative outlet. My fiancé and I even took an 8,000 km road trip during our summer vacation, traveling from Norway to Portugal and then back up through the UK before heading home. This journey reignited my love for collecting hobbies and exploring new passions.

Now that we’ve completed the first soft launch of the platform at my current company, I feel more energized and refreshed than ever. I’m excited to leave the past behind and refocus on what I love: sharing insights and getting back to blogging about tech! 😎
