Hey Leader!

I competed in my first Olympic triathlon yesterday! (Oh my am I SORE and oh so proud!).

I didn’t sign up to prove anything.
I signed up to remember something.

→ What it feels like to be a beginner.
→ What happens when progress is invisible.
→ What it takes to keep going when no one’s clapping.
→ What it means to get after a goal that both scares and excites you.

It reminded me:
The commitment gets easier once you stop negotiating with yourself.

And?
Doing it imperfectly still counts. A lot.

Whether you’re training, leading, or building something new (like a book - see below! 😅)…

…you don’t have to feel “ready” to start… you just have to start.

Lead boldly, live fully, & don’t forget to breathe.

In your corner,

A peek inside what I’m building — at work & in life!

Work was above in “book bonuses” so here’s a sneak peek at life!

I’m mostly still reminiscing about my first-ever RV trip last week. Pro tip — don’t drive 30 miles down a dirt road lol. Yes, we ended up with a tornado of dust inside the RV and had a whole lot of cleaning to do on day one!
