A Little Word
On Why I Blog
I know what you might be thinking. Yes, I’m still young—not quite in my 50s yet. So, what gives me the legitimacy to write about mindset shifts and being a forever beginner?
For starters, I wish I had adopted the beginner’s mindset even earlier than I did in my mid-30s. I deeply resonate with those, especially women, who struggle to overcome their fears of starting anew. I’ve had countless conversations with many who feel this way, while I’ve made it my personal mission to continuously learn new things and resist following a linear, complacent path. Whenever I start feeling too comfortable in my work, skills, or activities, I always challenge myself to take on something new.
This journey goes way back. I’ve never been confined to just one field. Even while studying, I spent six years getting several degrees in areas as diverse as History, Literature, International Business, and the Energy Industry. Some might say I was scattered or inconsistent—I’ve heard it all—but this versatility has been a tremendous asset. It’s made me more open-minded, adaptable, and able to connect with people from all walks of life, creating a virtuous circle of continuous learning and growth. After all, experience is worth more than any diploma, and I’ve accumulated over a decade of hands-on experience in this pursuit.
Dive in, get messy, and grow through every adventure.
This blog isn’t just about showing the pretty side of things (though its design is pretty!). It’s about getting messy—embracing our weaknesses, failures, mistakes, struggles, and challenges, falling down, and getting back up again! I want to share my journey as an adult beginner, starting new hobbies, exploring solo travel for women with no prior experience, and launching new business ventures as a female entrepreneur. I’ve gathered a lot of experiences in these areas, and I’m excited to pass on practical tools, tips, and recommendations that might help you avoid the mistakes I’ve made or the time I’ve spent searching for answers.
I’ll also write about mindset shifts and how to build the confidence to take on anything, even when it feels overwhelming. My goal is to provide actionable advice and encouragement to help you navigate your own challenges as a lifelong learner and multipotentialite. I’ll also hold myself accountable by continuing to explore new things, acquire new skills, and share the journey with you as I go. This space isn’t just about my experiences; it’s about growing together, embracing the process of continuous learning, and thriving as a forever beginner.
