Hi guys,

So after beeing miserable for years in IT, I have finally decided to quit. Take over my parents clothes market shop (they are retiring), and I will do videography as well.
Just got some books like "why we buy", "the curated closet", "visual merchandising" etc, as my parents have years of experience, and a lot of people skills that I miss. But I might be be able to bring something new to the table as they have not really changed their way of working over the last 40 years. Pretty sure I cannot turn this into a fastlane business, but at this point I have to give priority to my mental health and give this thing a go. (just turned 40)

Just getting the news out there, wish me luck, if anyone has got any pointers let me know!

cheers!
