About Nola Noreen!

Welcome

In 2021, about 6 months into my 50th trip around the sun and in the midst of the COVID-19 world pandemic, I decided to take a job as administrator of a nursing home. A bold choice, perhaps, given the times we’re living in, the challenges long-term care facilities across Canada face, and the fact that I am a Chartered Professional Accountant with no nursing background .

It was the best choice I ever made. Caring for seniors is meaningful work. My Sweetie says I leave for work happy every day and return even happier.

A choice like this was not atypical for me.  I believe that a carefully curated life is a happy life.

This blog is about knowing your purpose in life and, from that, curating a life you love.  Sorting and sifting through life to eliminate what doesn’t serve you, and to embrace everything that does. Even when it feels a little uncomfortable or out-of-step with the rest of the world. 

This blog is for me, but I am happy to share it with you.
