prada

I was reading last weekend about Miuccia Prada. You know, the fashion designer. Except she’s not ‘just’ a fashion designer. She is also a doctor, with a PhD in political science, and a mime artist. [Super cool, no?]

Lovely clients often speak to me about their Next Step. Many worry that it will be ‘wrong’, that it won’t maintain their income or connect them with certain folk or keep them on a particular trajectory.

I get those concerns, I really do. They’re important to consider. I also know how important it is to do stuff that is excellent and lights up your brain and just feels right. Because being who you are and being interesting and interested and loved and loving and inspired and productive and courageous and all those delicious, the.world.is.a.good.place adjectives is what it’s all about really. Isn’t it?

If I think about someone writing an article about me in twenty years, I hope that they say that I took risks and did super interesting stuff and followed my heart a fair bit. More than I hope they say I got super rich and knew all the right people and had a great real estate portfolio.
