Adventures and Experiences

Embarking on uncharted territory, way beyond my comfort zone, proved to be a profound life lesson in mindfulness

We're big fans of experiential vacations. Had an amazing time with my boys, getting hands-on with kintsugi, immersing ourselves in the Japanese culture, and savoring the culinary delights of Kobe.

Observing the majestic five in their own habitat taught me a profound life lesson: the importance of respecting boundaries and allowing others their own space.

Embracing the unknown. Building trust, recognizing risks, and being prepared.

Tempted to turn back, but conquered fear by realizing others had done it too. Trusted the process, found cheerleaders, paid it forward by cheering others on.

Worked with my running coach and carved a roadmap. Importance of a buddy, noticing things we take for granted, and it’s never too late, some of the life lessons learned after taking on this challenge.

Embarking on adventures far beyond my comfort zone, Offroading became one of those unforgettable journeys.

Our constant companion for 14 years, as we traversed homes, cities and countries, his dog sitters called him a therapy dog. He taught me resilience and patience, gravitas and persistence.

Just before his 79th birthday my father sold his business. He was a workaholic and I had to find him a new purpose. I motivated him to leave a legacy for his grandchildren and inspire young entrepreneurs. That WHY resonated with him and then there was no looking back. Age then was just a number. We launched his autobiography on his 80th birthday, surrounded by friends and fellow Rotarians.

Arenas filled with euphoria. Meeting 65-year-old Dona, a professional barrel racer now featured on my podcast, became a powerful lesson in courage. The tradition of teaching early, cattle care added depth to these experiences—a unique blend of thrill and cultural values

In a world fueled by passion and resilience, each week presents a new race and fresh challenges. The driver maintains positivity, refusing to let losses affect their spirit—a profound lesson in perseverance. Here, the journey matters as much as the victories, and staying positive becomes the driving force.
