A great dare |
|
| |
Jennifer submitted this dare for the Dare Collage and I really loved it and wanted to share it with you here:
This summer I dared myself to become the woman I told myself I always could be. I jumped out of an airplane at 10,500 feet, pulled my own ripcord at 5,000 feet and am taking motorcycle lessons.
As a next step, I dare myself to finish my resume and find a job that brings me personal fulfillment.
For the first time since being a child, I am finding pleasure in just being me.
Thanks, Jennifer, I found this so refreshing. An as promised, a signed copy of the Daring Female book is on its way to you!

Dare Collage and other slowness |
|
| |
My apologies for lack of blog posts and for the terrible slowness in updating the Dare Collage. Some of it is due to vacations - oh, how I wish there was more time for that - some to an overwhelming amount of other work. But I want to assure you that all of your wonderful dares WILL become part of the Dare Collage just as soon as our webmaster (aka my kind but too busy husband) finds a bit of time to work on them.
I hope you are enjoying your summer!
