Change…
**Cliquez ici pour la version française**
I’ve been working on this post for months now… torn between wanting to explain why I suddenly mostly vanished from social media and the need to keep my kids and I safe. Of course now that 2025 is coming to an end, it’s time to look back, reflect and plan for the year to come… and it’s probably the best time to talk about the future of La rose du rang.
I’ll gloss over the gritty and very cliché reasons why, but in March I had to come to terms with the fact that my marriage was finally over. After over 19 years with my now ex-husband and 15 years as a stay-at-home mom, it was not an easy change to navigate…
But I am not one to let herself be overcome by the storm, and I did not have the luxury to stay still… we rarely do, afterall, once we’re finally free to take back control of our story.
I’m lucky because I am surrounded by great people who offered support, help and who listened to me… and thanks to them I managed to keep me and my little world afloat through the waves.
That being said, I am now back in the workforce, in a field that has 0 things to do with anything I’ve done before… but that I absolutely adore.
I’m part of a great team, appreciated and valued… it’s an incredible feeling after spending years fading in the background.
However, this means that La rose du rang is no longer my main occupation… Don’t panic, I’m not closing up shop, but if we’re being realistic it does mean that right now is a bit too chaotic for me to really be able to put my creativity first.
I know I will find my footing and that I will slowly be able to find a way to express my creativity to keep sustaining this universe I’ve been building for so long now.
I don’t know what 2026 has in store for me, but for the first time in a decade I won’t be going into the new year trying to do the impossible to keep a sinking boart afloat by myself… and that’s a blessing!
So… what do you want to see in 2026?
