Living a “GREAT” story felt so much easier, so much more obvious when i was on an adventure. To run around and primarily seek opportunities to help, to sit with people from all over the world and feel like everyone was coming alive at the same time, or sharing some real, true reality of who they are. For me nothing ever, ever, ever felt more right than interviewing people who felt stuck. Men, women, younger, older, super “successful” and others struggling, and yet this weird thing happened when we sat down to talk, or hiked and talked. The stories tumbled out like a dam held up for far too long, the universal vulnerability was shocking. I still don’t really know how it happened, but it has made me crave that level of depth, that level of community, of truth.
How do you LIVE A GREAT STORY when you’re in a season that requires sacrifice, a “season” that seems needed but maybe doesn’t make you jump for joy? Real talk.
