Great to find a blog in the same niche as mine! :) I read thru all your posts in one sitting.

When you've just become a parent is when it's the best time to quit. Managing work and childcare at the same time is inhumanly hard, so now's the best time to take a career break and focus on your child. Great move!

I'll be very interested in your future posts on how you are finding and handling this career break :) All the best.

Likewise! There are not many folks who blog about their life after FIRE and I'm glad to have found yours to learn from :) I'm looking forward to your posts as well!

Best of luck! I'm sure you'll cherish the extra time you'll have with the kid.

Good luck! Enjoy the time with the little one. It will be the hardest job of your life, but like you said, your perspective is forever changed.

Very cool. Can I say how brave you are? Takes guts to prioritise things in life which are different from the herd.

I am FIRE myself, and while I don't have kids, I do look back and think I gave unnecessary priority and way too much of my mindspace to work. Glad to see that you have your priorities sorted, and at the right juncture in your life.

All the best. Live well, dost.
