After road tripping over the last week from Nashvi After road tripping over the last week from Nashville to Wilmington and Charlotte North Carolina and then down to Southern Tennessee, I wanted to showcase some of the connections that have made life so uniquely special. 

Some of these connections are from my childhood, others from Kauai, and some through 6 degrees of separation. 

🌟 Just a reminder that every person we meet adds a new hue to our tapestry. Some threads sparkle, some strengthen, some surprise—but all make the ride unforgettable. 🚀✨

Of course, not everyone is pictured here, but thanks to all for being on the wild, magic carpet ride with me! 

BTW, I included some of the detours that were inspired by these encounters. 

Here’s to looking up and taking the detours!
🗯️"Look Up. Life is now; be in the moment." — Author Sage Adderley

Her words are a reminder not to wait—life is now. 💜
