I still have a long way to meet my 30 by 30 goal, but like I mentioned before, it really isn’t so much about the number, but making a lifestyle change to incorporate the things that I’m passionate about and enjoying doing and encouraging others to do the same.  Never in a million years, would I have imagined that I could make these types of changes in my life and be afforded so many great opportunities.  I’m truly blessed, thankful and appreciative of it all!
