I live in a very liberal state and city. I want to move to Texas or Arizona. I don’t have immediate employment anywhere but because of Covid I was able to pull my entire retirement out penalty free. I have the funds to move but the problem is my wife really doesn’t want to move. I know I won’t have any trouble finding work, however she is worried she won’t find any. What can I do to convince her? We’re both very conservative but she isn’t one to make rash decisions like myself. I don’t want to stay in this hell hole any longer. Advice?

Update: the wife holds licenses to practice in the state we live in only and if we move she would lose those licenses and have to either change careers or go back to college and receive a new education.
