6 Notes Sunday: Increasing luck, living the dream & supporting others

The best notes, posts, and random discoveries from my week on Substack.

Sitting in Cabo airport gulping back the tears as I write this.

Our daughter’s plane has just taken off bound for London Heathrow, while we’re waiting for the WestJet desk to open so we can check in for our flight to Vancouver. 🇨🇦

A very bittersweet end to a fabulous few weeks. I’m so excited to visit Canada as I’ve never been before and I bloody love maple syrup! 😂 But also desperately sad to say goodbye to my little girl. 😢

That’s the circle of life, though right? She’s off building her own life, we’re heading into our next adventure, and beneath the tears I’m incredibly proud of her. 😊

So, while I sit here waiting to check in and trying to pull myself together, let’s move on to today’s 6 Notes Sunday picks.

A weekly roundup for chilled Sundays when all we want to do is skim headlines and drink coffee (or airplane tea in my case).

Here are 5 of my favourite Substack Notes from the week, plus my own most popular one.

Let’s get into it.

#1

Amen sister! This is exactly what The 50+ Nomad is all about. ❤️

Not building a business for the sake of having a business.

Building a business that supports your dream lifestyle.

I’ve been thinking about something very similar over the last few weeks, particularly when it comes to building a creator business.

The more you write, publish, share, connect, and put yourself out there, the larger your surface area for luck becomes.

Most “overnight successes” are years in the making.
