Every single day there are opportunities for us to be brave and bold. But it is up to us to decide if we are going to actually be brave and bold. Yesterday my son challenged me to climb out of my comfort zone and up a really big hill! I was nervous. I hesitated. I full on backed off from the challenge. But then he told me I owed him $10.

We had nowhere that we had to go and frankly few places that you can even go. But I needed that break. I needed that sense of normalcy. I am a doer. I am a mover and a shaker.
