I am in the middle of the exact, exact same thing. I love what I have in LA, materially; my home, the pace of life, a space to regain my health and work on improving my wellness, but the reality is that I miss NYC. The fires also really opened my eyes to this (I live very near the Sunset fire, and have coworkers who lost everything in the other fires, and friends who have been displaced) and it really in that moment of packing my things and evacuating with three suitcases and my cat cemented for me that I would be okay if this was all gone.
Am I future-nostalgic for what I haven't left yet? Definitely, yes, but I am also feeling really cemented that this isn't my forever place and learning to be okay with that.
i am in the middle of something eerily similar! excited for you. lots of goodness ahead, i’m sure! so grateful i stumbled upon your page and looking forward to seeing where you land in nyc in the coming months. we got this 🫶
Also a fellow girl with no partner in finance or uncle in real estate going through the hell that is the NY real estate market rn!!!! Best of luck to you I’m sure you will find something soon ✨
I felt this in my entire being.
