Cancer is one of the top killers in our world. My friend Cordale sat down with me in the van and told me about his cousin, more like a brother, who was taken by surprise and so so soon. While 2021 looked hopeful for many, before the first month was over, some battled the biggest fight of their life and lost...
Support the show
Cordale shares details of his experience standing by the side of someone he loved very much. With the fear, the worry, the pain, the exhaustion, a decision, and ultimately the loss. What do we do when someone we love gets diagnosed? How are we supposed to react? How do they react? What is cancer?
Remember.. You are not alone. Whatever your battle is, talk to people. Look beyond yourself and fight, love, smile.

What is it like to go from a "we" to a "me"
From full-time vanlife to always on the road in my 2021 Ford Bronco!

Lonely? Depressed? Suicidal? Why? Have you changed everything in your control? probably not. Partners, jobs, vehicles.. All three are very big attributes to our daily mood. None of which should define us. Who are you at your core? Today's episode was recorded on the last day my van drove.. In a time that we feel like we have lost all control and all normalcy, I encourage you to take advantage of the season you are currently in. You are the only one that can make a meaningful, long-term change in your life.

What would you do if your living just a regular day, and then BAM? You're surrounded and thrown to the ground by a S.W.A.T. team? Without any explanation your freedom is ripped from you without a promise it will return. On worldwide television, you are listed as a criminal to the United States. A threat. Your identity forever tainted. How would you feel? Could you recover? Plot twist! What if this happened to someone you knew? Your own father?

Well, this did happen to my family. Hear what Paul Kevin Curtis, my dad, has to say about the craziest experience we never saw coming. How it changed his life? And, where he is today.
My father is a man of many talents. He is passionate, a truth-seeker, and he stands up for what is right. Hear him transform into Trump, Kermit the frog, etc... You can be extraordinary, but don't lose focus on where you want to end up one day.

In a world that makes us fearful of tomorrow due to covering our face for "protection," the modern-day civil war, or perhaps the basic anxieties we faced before the notorious 2020 began. Finding our voice can be tough. Combine that with actually listening to it, and that is near impossible. Only a few have succeeded in reaching their purpose while following their heart. We know them as the greats. Those names that you bring up over coffee and everyone in the room is quick to comment their opinion and/or experience. Join me on my journey through life in a van as an average female woman seeking meaning.

We have been completely off-grid, traveling through the state of Colorado. How do we find the perfect camping spots? What do you need when camping in the wilderness? What did we do when we found a mouse moved in and destroying our home? Telling all the wonderful tales of our mountain adventures, new friends, and how we ended up in a two-story resort, thanks to a stranger. Be good people and good people will be good to you. #Vanlife

Someone I had a brief conversations with a year ago, saw my van as she was driving through Colorado. She hit me up on social media and days later she is like a new best friend. Hear us discuss so many life things while we are sitting in the van at a wild life refuge across from the Great Sand Dunes. Why did Bethany (my friend) move out of her condo, quit her job, and is traveling across country in her van, with her dog, Simba?

Goals? Myth or Reality. It is up to us.
I just moved to the beautiful state of Colorado, with a stronger mindset, great people, and a breathtaking view. "There is no time like the present." Really! The past is over and the future hasn't happened. Now, is what you got. So, stop making excuses and make one change that will get you closer to "the you", you want to be.

My mother, a single mom of 4, tells her secrets of how she travels on a dime. Do you have a list of excuses for why you haven't had a vacation? Or why you simply can't afford it? Listen to real ways of overcoming those common reasons with my mom and me! I live in a van full time, while she has two full-time jobs, a fifiteen-year-old son still at home, and carries a tent in her car. Neither of us is "rich" and we ourselves took years to get on the other side of travel only being real in our dreams!

From ages 5 to 105 to every land that humans occupy, you have probably heard of the #coronavirus by now. It is a fast developing virus devastating the world as we know it. Schools, gyms, churches, and theme parks are all closed and/or closing. Tyler and I bring up everything we have learned so far and how to stay as safe as possible. Even though updates are being given out every hour, we want you to have the basic knowledge of where our country/world is. Most importantly so we can work together to fight this and come out as on top as we can! Find joy in the simple things, share what you can, and do not lose hope. It is time to pick up those hobbies, projects, and to finally take that "you time" you've been putting off.
