    Great thread, so interesting to hear others QBN’rs stories!

    37, married and feel like I’m in a really good place at the moment :)

    I had typed out a massive synopsis of how I got to where Im at. Re-read it and realised its irrelevant.

    Designer by trade but moved into advertising creative, have lived and worked in Sydney, Melbourne, London and currently in Hobart.

    A few years the absurdity of the pressures of working in agencies started to become apparent and I started to look for an out.

    Had my Honeymoon in Tasmania and instantly fell in love with the place, we promised each other if we the opportunity came up to work here we would take it.
    I got head hunted by an agency (I don't work there anymore, I'm self employed now) and moved here.

    I shifted from being someone who defines them self by their work/career success. To someone who still loves their work but realises that its only a small part of what I am and do. I think the environment here has had massive impact on me in that regard.
