- 💪 Let’s the stories we share here PROVE there is beauty to be found in the great expanse of life after facing what we assumed would have broken us!
A Serendipity is a story about how something that was terrible in the beginning became something incredible in the long run.
For me, 1. Having cancer as a young kid became the best thing about my life, surrounding me with other incredible survivors (some of you in the group!) and lead me to a passionate life of paying forward the example I was given as a kid.
2. Having poor circulation and getting frostbite a 6th time in alberta due to leukaemia led me to leave my hometown in Alberta. I drove 11hours to a new land with no friends and start fresh in Kelowna, BC. I slowly but surely made more aligned, ambitious and outgoing friends than I could have hoped for. Forcing open space allowed for amazing new surprises. I may not have left if i wasn’t forced to change climates for my health reasons!
3. ‘Failing’ by investing my life savings into my first fantasy book gave me profound lessons. It forced me to face my money fears when I lost my savings, I realized I’d rather be in the philanthropy industry instead of the entertainment industry with a fantasy series. And I had to admit I had NO IDEA what I was doing, and sought mentorship. That seeking lead to meeting mentors that altered my view and sense of possibility in the world, I owe a lot of my conviction and sense of hope to them, thanks to ‘failing’ my first fantasy book. 🤙
What’s your serendipity?
