Earlier this month, I celebrated a birthday and turned the big 25. I know the older crowd is smirking and saying that’s still young ... what does she know? To me, this age is a milestone.

During the last couple weeks, I’ve reflected back on the last few years of my life. It’s fun to compare my adult life today to the day when it started at age 18. Of course, so much has changed.

When I was 18, I used to sit and create big life dreams of where I would be and what I wanted in my future. Looking back, it wasn’t always absolutely clear what I would be doing, but it was always crystal clear what I wouldn’t be doing.
