Have you ever been reduced to a label someone else gave you?
Today I want to introduce you to Michael, Michael and I met back in December by the pool in Tahiti, I was ending a trip and he was just beginning what would be a 6 month adventure he had planned a couple years for. We chatted briefly and stayed in touch, I got to see his adventures and as he made his way back to New York we met up again and had a chat
He shared how his experience traveling changed him, for the time traveling with someone and the time traveling alone, how laughter and contentment aren’t always the same but how he witnessed and took part in them as he went from place to place
He shared in one of the most honest and sincere ways the difference between how he feels about joy and yet what he wants more of in his life, how relationships and people are at the core of what it all comes back to, and how taking positive feedback is a thing we can learn to be ok with
We chat about one of the scariest moments on his trip as he fell sick in the worlds largest cave and how day three in the cave and making his way out became such a valuable lesson, I think for all of us in tough times
Michael is one of those people that you meet and you feel as though when he asks how your day is, he means it, like when he smiles at you it is genuine, and like when you get to spend time with him he values you.
I believe people like Michael are the ones we need to make sure we all have in our lives, the kind that plan, but don’t, in his words “defer their dreams” the kind that do big things but aren’t afraid of making small impactful changes in the world, and the kind that truly do make humanity better
So tune in today and meet Michael, a human that will remind you to accept a compliment, to let your dreams evolve, to be you, and to be there for those you love
And to you Michael thank you, thank you for saying hello back in December, thank you for sharing your adventures, your journey, and your time with me, and thank you most of all for being someone who values connection and was willing to make a new friend
