Creating My Dream Life: From Corporate to Creative Freedom

Charming farmhouse surrounded by vibrant fields and trees in a lush rural landscape.

For a couple of months, I worked in a full-time job while juggling motherhood, side hustles, and my dream of living a peaceful, purpose-driven life. Now, I’m finally taking the leap again—resigning from corporate work to pursue the lifestyle I truly want. This post is all about my dream life goals and how I plan to achieve them.

My Vision for a Peaceful and Fulfilling Life

My dream life is simple, intentional, and full of meaning. I imagine living in a cozy home surrounded by nature, with a white picket fence, a vegetable garden for my husband, and space for my kids to run and play. I want to spend slow mornings with warm drinks, create content that helps others, and build passive income streams so I can focus on what really matters: my family, health, and peace of mind.

Why I’m Resigning From My Full-Time Job

After much reflection and prayer, I realized I was ready to commit to my creative pursuits and personal businesses. Working full-time made it hard to grow my passion projects. So I made the bold decision to resign and give my dreams the attention they deserve.

My Post-Resignation Business Goals

1. Start a Photo Studio

I plan to launch a photo studio that focuses on family portraits, creative shoots, and passport photos. The goal is to create a warm, welcoming space where clients feel celebrated and comfortable.

2. Run My Shoe Shop Again

I previously ran a small shoe business, and I’m excited to bring it back with new designs and better marketing. This time, I’ll relaunch it online and integrate social media selling.

3. Relaunch our family business

Our family business has great potential, and now that I have more time, I want to revive it. This includes opening business bank accounts and processing our ITR to operate legally and grow sustainably.

4. Create and Sell Digital Products

Through my platform, Grow With Pia, I’m building digital products that provide real value—from planners to guides and templates. These products will help others while generating passive income.

5. Rebuild My Content Channels

I’m committed to growing my YouTube channel, blog and TikTok. I’ll create content about lifestyle, entrepreneurship, and mental wellness to inspire others walking a similar path.

The Bigger Vision

I want to earn over ₱1 million per month through honest, heart-led work—not from hustle culture, but from aligned and consistent content, affiliate marketing, and product creation. I want to travel again (for free!), be present with my kids, and grow a business that supports our dream lifestyle.
