WHAT BROUGHT US HERE, WANTING A LIFESTYLE CHANGE FOR OUR FAMILY.
Firstly, welcome and thanks for getting this far and taking the time to read our story of what got us here and how turning to the online space to make a change from the 9-5 grind to the lifestyle many of us only dream of came about.
If nothing else we hope it inspires you to simply “be a better you then you were yesterday.”
Our goal is to hit the road with our kids indefinitely and travel Australia with no end date.
My name is Taleah and I’m 33 years old. I am currently a stay at home mum but prior to having my daughter Savannah (2) I was a Nurse and an Early Childhood Educator for almost 15 years. My husband Steve is 37 years young and is a Parts Interpreter and Service Advisor for an automotive company, which in his words is “for too long”.
Steve and I have been married for 3 years and have 2 children, Clayton 14 and Savannah 2. Like so many families these days we have struggled financially and mentally, trying to find a keep a good work/life balance. But with the costs of living rising and only living week to week we needed to change something. Both of our jobs involved shift work so our paths only crossed like two ships in the night, then add a newborn into the mix and something had to give. We both sacrificed to much of obvious to just get by that we needed to make a shift. It was “make or break” time. So we took a plunge, a leap of faith and dove straight into something that could potentially change our lives, and here we are...
We hit the realization that life is short, we were getting nowhere and had already wasted so much time and energy killing ourselves, trading time for money and working for big companies that we were just a number to. Having young children, we wanted to create better values and self beliefs in not only ourselves but in our children as well. Giving them more experience, freedom, confidence and stability as they grow and explore the world with us.
We turned to the online space to create a better life for our family as well as to enjoy every single minute of every single day with our family before it passes us by. I will be the first to admit, I was super worried, nervous, anxious, skeptical and all that to jump in and take a leap of faith, but I’m so glad we did. Now we want to smash our families goals and help others along the way, even if only a little bit.
What you will get, is US. All of us, the average, raw US. No fireworks, no fakeness, no filters just Steve and Taleah. The whys’, the hows and everything in between. Follow us on this epic journey and see where it takes us. Or don’t thats fine too, but either way LIFE IS SHORT and we don’t want to leave this earth with regrets.
We are open for tips, tricks and any questions or advice you might have so feel free to comment on posts or message us for a chat.
Watch us grow from here to ANYWHERE we want to be, doing it the WestbrookWay.
Cheers
WestbrookWay - Taleah & Steve
