My adventure philosophy ๐ŸŒŽ

What do you have to lose? How many times have you thought about just going for it and backed out at the last minute?

Well I actually donโ€™t have that issue.

Never.

Iโ€™m at the opposite end of the spectrum actually, as Iโ€™m always game for a last minute road trip and ready on a whim for a crazy adventure. While I am a meticulous planner with numerous notes of bucket list locations and hikes just waiting to be completed, I thrive on the thrill of touching down in a new town and jumping out into the unknown.

This learned habit wasnโ€™t always ingrained, as I have had to harness this need for extreme adventure after years of being so introverted and uncomfortable in my own skin. Now I see this as one of my biggest strengths and superpowers.

Whatโ€™s the point of having big dreams but no intent to go after them? Be bold. Be brave. Fight for what you want and what you deserve. I hate when people comment โ€œoh you are always so luckyโ€โ€ฆ. Really?! While Iโ€™ll take any four leaf clover when I see one, if you put in the work, I truly believe good things are bound to happen.

While Iโ€™m very critical of myself and always nitpicking every detail, I also live life with no regrets. What an empowering way to wake up every day!

Open every door that comes in your path and you will naturally have a wealth of experiences that will propel you forward into a beautiful and meaningful life. Make it count!
