The Inspiration Place 187: Follow Your Passion with Artist Christa Forrest and Miriam Schulman
In June 2021, something incredible happened that may have included you. Many people have reached a breaking point and are no longer satisfied working in a job that is unfulfilling. If you've been in this situation, you may agree. It can feel like your energy and soul are literally being drained out of your body.
Christa Forrest is living her dream as a full-time artist. She walked away from the prestige, stress, and anxiety of a financial career serving in private wealth management at Merrill Lynch.
Walking away from a lifeless existence only working to pay bills may be simpler than you imagine. Regardless of your art medium and style, pursuing your passion is worth the challenge when the reward is the freedom to create and live on your own terms.
"Just enjoy life and be amazing about what you do."
- Christa Forrest
