I think there are a lot of us out there, many still waiting to declare independence. To clarify the Europe reference(s): When I quit my job, my husband did the same that very week. It was the thing they tell you never, ever to do--quit your job with no backup--and we BOTH did it simultaneously. It was so absurd that we could hardly tell anyone, because most people would have judged us as plain idiots. But we were were seeking something beyond what our lifestyles at the time could provide, and knew we had to let go of everything if we wanted change. Within a few days, he got an offer to work abroad for a spell. Not only that, but we each got sizable supplemental work contracts. It was all Godsend. It's been 7 months, and we're off to Europe again for another of his work contracts. I am the "trailing spouse" (a term I don't take kindly to), but I find excellent practice in cultivating my own workflow during these transitional times. Because one thing you can count on if you quit your job is TRANSITION! Great to hear! I think there are a lot of us out there, many still waiting to declare independence.

It’s been 7 months, and we’re off to Europe again for another of his work contracts. I am the “trailing spouse” (a term I don’t take kindly to), but I find excellent practice in cultivating my own workflow during these transitional times.

Sounds like we are more or less in the same spot (quitting the job, wanting to freelance), but you lose me when you talk about traveling to Europe. Anyhow, thanks for the inspiration and amazing post about the last lecture series. Cheers, Tim Hey! Thanks for the great comment and even better blog.
