Building a Life That Feels Like a Deep Breath
There’s a moment that happens when you first arrive somewhere new—especially somewhere slower. You notice the quiet. The way the light hits the buildings. The fact that no one’s rushing, and no one expects you to either. And for the first time in a long time, you take a breath that doesn’t feel stolen. It just… belongs. This Is What We’re After Not just a different job. Not just a new address. A completely different rhythm. One where: Mornings aren’t chaotic Lunch is taken seriously Rest is respected Beauty is built into your day A life where your nervous system isn’t just managing—but actually resting. You Don’t Have to Hustle to Deserve This You’re not required to “earn” your peace by burning out first. You’re allowed to choose softness now. And whether your version of that breath is in a Paris apartment, a Provençal village, or a vineyard you wander after client calls—you get to build it. That’s What We’re Creating At La France Plan, we help you move to France—logistically, emotionally, and beautifully. At Le Digital Nomad Society, we help you create flexible income that gives you options, space, and freedom. Together? We’re not just planning moves. We’re building lives that feel like deep breaths.

How to Start Creating Your Exit Plan (Without Quitting Tomorrow)
You don’t need to burn it all down. You don’t need to move to another country next week. And you definitely don’t need to have it all figured out by Tuesday. But if you’ve been daydreaming about a slower life... or fantasizing about working from a vineyard instead of a cubicle... or Googling “digital nomad visa” more than you’d like to admit… It might be time to start building an exit plan. First: Get Clear on What You’re Actually Craving Not just where you want to go—but why. - Do you want more freedom in your day? - More rest and balance? - More beauty, more culture, more space to breathe? This isn’t about running away. It’s about realigning your life with what matters most. Then: Break It Into Steps This part? We help with that. At La France Plan, we guide you through the logistics, mindset, and lifestyle of building a new life abroad—especially in France. At Le Digital Nomad Society, we help you turn your existing skills into portable income that travels with you—whether your dream location is coastal, countryside, or cobblestone. You don’t need to move tomorrow. You just need a plan. And a path. The Exit Plan Isn’t Just a Strategy—It’s a Signal to Yourself That you’re listening. That you’re choosing. That you believe there’s more waiting for you than just surviving the workweek. You don’t have to leap. But you can start.

How to Start Creating Your Exit Plan (Without Quitting Tomorrow)
Permission to Slow Down: Granted
You don’t have to earn your rest. You don’t have to hit rock bottom before you make a change. You don’t have to squeeze one more thing into your calendar to “deserve” a slower life. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to slow down… this is it. In France, Rest Isn’t a Luxury—It’s a Lifestyle Lunch breaks are real. Shops close for the afternoon. People walk slowly, linger over meals, and treat weekends like actual weekends. It’s not seen as lazy. It’s seen as normal. Because life isn’t meant to be a race. And you’re not meant to live in a constant state of “catching up.” You’re Allowed to Choose a Different Rhythm You’re allowed to: - Start your mornings quietly, not rushing. - Take long walks just because. - Work at a pace that leaves space for life in between. You don’t have to keep proving yourself. You're already worthy of a life that feels good. Moving to France Isn’t Just About Geography It’s about giving yourself permission. Permission to enjoy your own life. Permission to live slower, deeper, and more fully. Permission to be, not just do. At La France Plan, we’re here to help you build that life—one peaceful, intentional choice at a time. Because the life you want isn’t waiting at the end of burnout. It’s waiting in the space you create when you finally slow down.

Unlearning Hustle Culture: What Moving to France Taught Me About Success
If you’re anything like me, you grew up believing that success = doing more. More hours. More tasks. More achievements. And maybe, somewhere along the way, you noticed: More didn’t always feel like… better. In France, Success Looks Different Here, success isn’t about how much you can cram into a day. It’s about how much life you can fit into it. A slow coffee at a corner café. A long walk to the market. A real lunch break—not a sandwich woofed down, hunched over your laptop. The measure of success isn’t how exhausted you are at the end of the day. It’s how alive you feel moving through it. Unlearning Hustle Culture Isn’t Easy It feels weird at first to not glorify busy-ness. You catch yourself feeling guilty for finishing work at 5. You hesitate before taking a full hour (or two) for lunch. You wonder if resting means you’re falling behind. But little by little, you start to realize: Hustle isn’t the only way to move forward. Sometimes, it’s what’s keeping you stuck. Rest Isn’t a Reward—It’s a Requirement In France, it’s normal to protect your downtime. Shops close for lunch. People linger at cafés without feeling like they should be somewhere else. You’re allowed to exist without constantly performing your productivity. It’s not radical here. It’s just life. You’re Allowed to Redefine What Success Looks Like Maybe success isn’t the big title. Maybe it’s the life that feels softer, slower, and more intentional. Maybe it's waking up somewhere that matches your pace instead of constantly fighting it. At La France Plan, we’re not just helping you move countries. We’re helping you move toward a life where rest, connection, and joy are part of the plan—not afterthoughts. Because you don’t need to hustle harder. You just need a better fit.

Unlearning Hustle Culture: What Moving to France Taught Me About Success
In France, Rest Isn’t Earned—It’s Expected
If you’re used to glorifying busyness, scheduling every minute, and feeling low-key guilty for watching a movie without “being productive”... France might feel like a different planet. And honestly? That’s kind of the point. Let’s Talk About the Cultural Reset In France: - People pause in the middle of the day (yes, really pause) - Sundays are sacred - Rest isn’t something you “earn”—it’s just part of life You’re not rewarded for burnout. You’re not applauded for answering emails at midnight. You're encouraged to live. What That Looks Like in Real Life You might: - Take a two-hour lunch on a Tuesday and not feel bad about it - Walk to the market every morning just because it brings you joy - Close your laptop at 5 and not think about it again until tomorrow Life in France isn’t lazy. It's just less performative.There’s less pressure to prove how hard you’re working—and more space to actually enjoy what you’ve built. Retirement in France Isn’t a Finish Line—It’s a Lifestyle Whether you’re officially retired, semi-retired, or just craving a softer season of life, France offers something a lot of places don’t: - Permission to slow down - A culture that supports it - And a rhythm that makes it feel normal, not indulgent The French Don’t Romanticize Rest—They Normalize It What feels like a luxury to us? To them, it’s just… life. That’s what La France Plan is here to help you access. Not just the visas and the logistics (though we cover those too)—but the actual feel of French life. The slow. The soft. The deeply satisfying enough-ness of it all.

@Novelette Davis-Virgo Right?! Imagine if slowing down wasn’t the exception—it was the norm. We’re not saying France has it all figured out, but they’re definitely onto something. Here’s hoping more of the world catches the slow-living bug too 💛

@Helen Wallworth Thank you so much for sharing this, Helen. It’s heartbreaking how many of us were taught rest = weakness, when really it’s the foundation of everything. I’m so glad you’ve reclaimed that for yourself—and yes, Spain and France both really get it. Slowness isn’t laziness. It’s where wisdom lives. 💛
