I would be a little bit careful Monday Morning quarterbacking this: the story is a reflection a her narrative told to a friend, not the reasons for the decisions as she made them. There's can be a lot lost in translation when communicating the decision process around major life events, and tendency to fit everything into a retrospective narrative: i.e. I'm 'here now', and the last thing didn't work out, because i wanted to be 'here now'
