How do you find your true passion?

I’ve been quiet these past few weeks. For many reasons, but one of them stands out from the others: I was having an internal career crisis.

How do you find your true passion?

I’ve been feeling as if I needed to be doing something else, something other than taking pictures in a pretty dress and thinking about work 24/7. I wanted to do something that would make me happy. And then I started thinking: baking makes me happy! watching baking shows makes me happy! Not because I want to eat them, but because just the idea of being able to create something so pretty and making people happy when they taste them makes me even happier.

So I thought, what if I tried? after all my mother is the best baker I know, maybe the baking gene passed onto me?

Fast forward a few days and I’ve been making desserts non stop! Don’t worry, I have my own taste tester who takes them and tries them for me 😉 thank you friend! I also have my roommate who eats the ones that don’t contain lactose.

I always thought baking wasn’t my thing. I considered it linked to cooking, which I hate! but the truth is, baking and cooking are two completely different things. You can be an amazing chef, but a really bad baker and vice versa.

So how do you find your true passion? You keep trying and trying until you stumble upon it. You know you’ve found your true passion when that thing becomes the only thing you can think of and you want to keep bettering yourself.

I wanted to write this post to update you on my current hobby: baking. I’m also taking a baking class this fall which I’m really excited about and I have a few more exciting news that I will be sharing very soon!

In the mean time check out this gorgeous LBD by Self Portrait! I love everything this brand creates and this beauty is both comfortable and elegant. Two of my favourite things!
