7. It’s a Journey

It’s a journey—a unique path that belongs to each of us: yours, mine, everyone’s. No one’s path is better than another, as long as you walk it freely and stay true to who you are.

But what if you haven’t found your passion yet, or you can’t pursue it fully? Then chase it in small, meaningful ways. Recognize that your choices, even the unexpected ones, have brought you here, perhaps offering something even more valuable than the “obvious” path.

I’m standing at the threshold of this new creative project, and every other day, I question my ability to see it through. But I will—despite the fear, despite the long list of excuses I could make. I will - even though.

I never said it would be easy; I only said it would be worth it. – Mae West

Thank you for being here,

P.S. The brilliant poet and coach Marc McGuinness taught me to embrace the “even though” and go for it. 🙏🏻 Thanks, Mark. You’re amazing.
