I’ve been hinting at changes for the last couple of months. In case you’re wondering what I’m up to, let me know what the two major changes are.
First, we’re moving home – within the same colony we currently live in – to my parents’ home that they very generously gifted to us. Having lived there before marriage, it’s really homecoming for me.
The second piece of news is that I’m setting up a small business – to offer offline training, coaching and writing services. I’ve rented a small space, also in the same colony, and start on 1st August 2018. The Frangipani Creative is really something I’ve wanted to do for quite a while now, but didn’t work up the courage to do. Not so surprisingly, it was a series of very difficult and heartbreaking events that have pushed me to launch out on my own. I’m taking the first few months just to get perspective and sort out priorities. Creating this space, is moving me a lot closer to my dreams.
I’m enjoying the place I am at in life. I took time to pause. Now I’m looking forward to all the pause-abilities (a phrase I borrowed) and I’m daring the dream like Linus:
What do you want to be when you grow up? 🙂

Congratulations and very happy for you! I love the name of the initiative and I am so glad you are doing what you wanted to do for a long time. If I can be of any little help, please feel free to let me know. If I visit Hyderabad, I am going to stop by 🙂
Beautiful and outrageously positive post. Love and hugs!
This is such a lovely post Corinne. Doing things at your pace and aiming for that elusive “outrageously happy” goal is just an amazing thing to do. I think its an awesome goal.
That is such wonderful news! Congratulations and all the best for Frangipani Creative!
I liked what Linus had to say. I even made D read it and of course, the question came what is outrageously happy. I wish you all the best, Corinne, with your new initiative. May you be very successful with Frangipani Creative and the moving to your parents’ house works out for good.
Wow, this new venture is looking really exciting and many congrats to you for this new beginning. hope you will rock it too, all the best!
Wow. Congrats on your homecoming and new venture. And the name you selected for your new venture is really cool. May God bless you abundantly, Corinne.
All the best Corinne for the new step! Going back to classroom is always fun, even if its for teaching this time 🙂
I was wondering Corinne so thanks for sharing . How wonderful to fulfill your dream of the Frangipani Initiative. Wishing you good luck with this venture and may you enjoy the sweet smell of success with your frangipani
Outrageously happy is a great target to work towards! Congratulations on the Frangipani Creative – love the name! – and on the move. (((hugs)))
Are you shifting to Mumbai?
Ha ha..no. Just within the same colony in Secunderabad!
All the best Corinne. I am sure many will benefit because of your expertise. I also want to be outrageously happy when I grow up.
All the best, Corinne. I wish everything your heart has every desired comes true.
Also, a very, very warm homecoming to you.
Hugs!
So many good things happening for you because you have made them happen. All the best for your new business. Awesome news.
All the best Corinne for your new venture. I love the frangipani flower too. We had a big tree just outside our building in Mumbai and I could touch it from my window.
Heartiest congratulations Corinne! Wishing ‘The Frangipani Creative’ and you a very prosperous and fruitfully engaged times ahead.
I am sure the previous experiences have handed you a bag of ‘lessons learnt’ and that you had left the burden of hurt feeling way back. Thankfully all that is over…
Wish you a very happy and warm home coming Corrine. May you find each corner of the house in new light!
And yes…be outrageously happy!
Congrats for house shifting and way to go for a new beginning. I love the name Firangipani Creative for remember there was a restaurant in Mumbai during my time there. Best wishes Corinne and team.
