LIFE OFF STAGE
I cap my speaking events at 40-50 a year. Why? Because I don’t want to focus so much time on building a career that I forget to live a life. I have passions outside of speaking that I make time for so that I can continue to walk the walk. I can’t just talk about ‘facing fear’ or ‘leaning into challenges’ without doing it myself.
Whether it’s jumping off of a cliff on a snowboard, diving with sharks, climbing an active volcano, travelling to a new place, trying a new fitness challenge or just playing frisbee in the park with friends, getting the most out of life remains a priority. It is an integral part of every message I share on stage. It allows me to have new, exciting, terrifying experience that I can then share with the audience I have the honor of speaking to. As I push myself, I am learning new ways to help others do the same.
