How to Crystallize a Life: This or Something Better

One of the biggest stressors I had about my upcoming move to California (other than the obvious emotional ones surrounding the goodbyes I’ll be saying to my loved ones, favorite walking paths, and the crazydelicious burgers from Parlour) was about securing a new location for my MasterMinds of Two. As any solopreneur can appreciate, I do NOT want my work to suffer or be delayed in any way because of any personal obligations.

Back in Minneapolis, I had a sweet setup at Life Time Work for my Crystallizations. Not only were the posh accommodations appreciated by both my clients and me, the collab booths and conference rooms were highly functional for the co-creative work I do. For the last few months I’ve done a ton of research on possible options in my new zip code, but none of them were cutting the mustard.

Panic had started to kick in.
