Nic: Your workshop "How Much Money is Enough" and all your writing on this topic have been hugely impactful for me and my own unraveling from capitalism and the more, more, more mindset. Getting clear on what is enough for me is still in process but feeling like I am moving towards deeper understanding of that has changed me! I am truly grateful! And I know this is not only NOT the point but contrary to another point you are making earlier in this essay, but the idea that this choice makes you less interesting is laughable to me! More interesting! More leaning in! SO many questions! (I do get the point you are making and I am typing this with some bratty energy.) That said, when I took a sabbatical for 6-months (aka left my job and stopped earning for a time) I experienced much the same. I'll never forget the person who said I was waiting my "highest earning potential years." I longed for others on this path to talk with and connect with. So again, full circle back to my first point of how your writing on this topic has been such a lighthouse for me! Thanks for opening up and inviting others along with you.
