I've found that the best things in life start with a little push— or maybe just 20 seconds of insane courage.

For me it was 2020: inching toward the end of my 20s and stunted by the staleness of the pandemic, I was overwhelmed by that feeling- the one where you know you're in the wrong place in life. Stuck in a mind-numbingly secure Fortune 5 job after losing my dream job to a natural disaster, I realized that the most dangerous risk of all is spending your life not doing what you want on the bet that you can buy yourself the freedom to do it later. I had wasted so much time people-pleasing my way off of my own path in pursuit of a "dream" that wasn't mine- and it was a hard truth to swallow. 

I decided to say "f*ck it" and started traveling as much as I could. It expanded the dimensions of my mind, brought me the love of my life and profound joy, and completely transformed my worldview. I was obsessed with sharing it with anyone who would listen!

I masterminded my escape from my in 9-5 with a glass of wine (fine, 2!), launching my own business while working full time, saving every penny, and finally quit my job and never looked back. And nothing in my life has been more terrifying, yet more worthwhile. 

I hope you’re inspired to just go, because if you want to live a happier, fuller life, you have take chances- lots of them.
