Most people know this about me. Which is why it’s kind of hilarious that I was ever an Army wife. Or that I started a small business. Or that I have three children.

I’ve had the chance to try several new things in the past few years. Which makes me wonder what I’ve missed out on some of these years by not just taking a leap and being okay with the possibility of failure.
