Are you seeking security or adventure?

View all responses

For me, I believe I’ve achieved security. Not in the sense of my career or my relationships, but within myself as a person. It took me many, many years to reach this profound feeling of being secure in my own mind, a realization that comes with a newfound clarity and self-acceptance. So now I’m most definitely seeking adventure! If my kids ask to do something now, we will do it, no bullshit excuses. Whether it’s a spontaneous day trip to a nearby park or a long-awaited journey across the country, I embrace these moments fully, knowing they create lasting memories. If we think about organizing a holiday, I now write a list of what we need to do and hold myself accountable to achieve that holiday, ensuring that all the details come together smoothly. As I’ve said previously, we only get one shot at this merry-go-round called life. Don’t waste it second-guessing yourselves; get out there and live your best lives doing whatever makes you happy! Every experience, every laugh shared with loved ones, adds to the richness of our lives, and I am committed to making the most of every opportunity that comes our way.
