What is Living in Curiosity?

I live in constant curiosity, always digging into what sparks my interest and fuels my journey.

"Living in Curiosity" is basically my open notebook where I share all the cool ideas and inspirations I stumble upon.

My hope?

That by seeing what lights my fire, it might just ignite something awesome in you too, helping you chase your passions without holding back. Join me as I figure things out – maybe we can figure some things out together!

Why join the Living in Curiosity Substack?

Ever feel that nudge to explore, to ask "what if?"

That's where I live, and it's what "Living in Curiosity" is all about.

If you're someone who believes in blending your passions with your work (or wants to!), and you're looking for a dose of real-life inspiration and maybe a few sparks of your own, then this is your space.

I'm sharing my journey as I figure things out, the stumbles and the "aha!" moments, all in the hope it'll encourage you to chase your own curiosities and build a business and life that truly lights you up.

Think of it as a friendly nudge towards a more wonder-filled way of doing things.

Sound like your kind of vibe? Come join me!

Hi I’m Renee. I’m glad you’re here.

I’m a fan of Iced Coffee & Arnold Palmers. I am an avid reader - mostly non-fiction and biographies. I enjoy a great steak and Mushrooms Neptune from the Keg. I’m an introvert and love to write.

I run a website maintenance, security & hosting company called Geek in Your Pocket and have been a solopreneur since 2008, and I am lucky to have many amazing clients all over the world.

My business (and now this adventure) support my goals & values:

• I live every day focused on being kind because we need more kindness in our world, especially now.

• I value living simply and making choices that make my home life fantastic

• I value curiosity. I love to explore, learn and understand everything around me.

• I choose to be generous, in my time with those important to me and to my clients because many become like family to me and I want to see you succeed as much as I succeed.

• I look for fun every day, we have enough serious stuff happening in our lives that sprinkling those challenges with a bit of fun every day can make it all just a bit more manageable.
