Every morning that we are fortunate to awaken is a blessing. The sun rises like clockwork to start yet another day in history. A new year – 12 new chapters & 365 opportunities.

Poonhill in Nepal was truly majestic. 415am wake up call to trek 3290 steps straight up with only our headlamps to light the way. Heavy fog cleared just in time for sunrise to reveal a masterpiece. Above the clouds we were treated with a glorious view of the whole Annapurna mountain range & it tookContinue reading “Above the clouds in Nepal”

This is one of my favorite quotes. That guiding light when my courage is waning and resilience is tested. To truly follow your heart is scary and a leap of faith. But you owe it to yourself to take care of you first. To commit. What is your go to?

I have mixed emotions today. One of the greatest accomplishments of my life but also a very painful day. My travel obsession has euphoric highs and crushing lows. A sweet refuge for the soul as I reminisce. I have only shared this video with seven people to date – my Titusville Y leadership team &Continue reading “1 yr Everest Base Camp Anniversary”

I absolutely love motivational quotes and have found a few that have profoundly changed my perspective about life. This is one of them….. Really let this one sink in. How about you?

On my US epic road trip, I looked forward to finding my daily hideout to enjoy lunch.
