If there’s one thing sailing has taught us, it’s this: the wind doesn’t always do what you expect. And honestly? That’s where the good stuff lives. In this episode, Erik and I talk about the role of flexibility—not just on the water, but in life. We share stories of plans that went sideways and how those moments became some of our most meaningful memories. Whether you’re dreaming about a sailing trip or just trying to navigate your everyday, we hope this conversation leaves you feeling encouraged, open to discovery, and ready to ask, what could go right?
