Have you ever had to redefine what success means for yourself? I’d love to hear your thoughts.

I’ve found that tourism is the perfect fit for my transferable skills—from storytelling and creativity to connecting with people on a personal level.

I’ll always carry my creative background with me. It shaped who I am and gave me skills I now use in the business world every day. But stepping into a new chapter taught me that success isn’t about sticking to one narrative. It’s about rewriting it in a way that feels right for you.

For me, acting was fulfilling in so many ways, but it wasn’t always what made me happiest. Letting go of the need to meet a traditional definition of success allowed me to embrace something new—something I’ve found even more rewarding.

That’s the thing about transitions—they’re not always about making a big, dramatic leap. Sometimes they happen gradually, giving you space to reflect and redefine what success really means. Is it regular work? Fame? Or is it simply being happy?

It was a choice that might’ve felt impossible a few years earlier, when the idea of “quitting” felt tied to a stigma of failure. But by the time I made the call, it didn’t feel like quitting. It felt natural. Right.

But as time went on, and my life and situation evolved, and I changed and evolved, something wasn’t sitting right. Eventually, I made the decision to actively step back. I asked my agent to stop submitting me for roles.
