In this vlog, the creator opens with a lyrical monologue about the power of ordinary love, then transitions to a personal narrative recorded in a Luxembourg hotel on August 2, 2024. She reflects on the excitement of traveling, the freedom she gained by leaving an unhealthy job in New York, and her desire to relocate to France to be closer to her daughter. She emphasizes a step‑by‑step philosophy: life changes are made one small action at a time, not through massive leaps, and that humans are designed to focus on the immediate next step. She shares her intention to pivot her business toward a new direction that serves her community, admits she only knows the first step—announcing her new focus—and invites viewers to comment on whether uncertainty about future steps holds them back. The vlog ends with a personal sign‑off, noting her early wake‑up, plans to edit and post the video tomorrow, and gratitude for the audience’s support.

Don't you ever say you are not enough, baby, you're enough.
Hello, bonjour, should I say bonsoir? It is day 26 of 30 days of following my dreams. It is August 2nd, 2024, and as I am recording this, it is almost 10 PM, and I am at a very nice hotel in Luxembourg where my husband and I are staying for a couple of days while we visit our dear relative who lives here. And first time in Luxembourg, and it was just really fun to be in the downtown area and spend some time walking around in a new place. I always enjoy seeing new places, especially when it's a new country. And I was thinking about how none of this would have been possible if I had not listened to something within me that said I could change my life and that I didn't have to stay in a work situation, for example, that was very, very unhealthy for me, and that I didn't have to work for people who didn't appreciate me, and that I didn't have to even live somewhere where, you know, I loved living in New York City, but I wanted to be closer to our daughter. And I was like, there's got to be a way for us to make this happen, that we can move to France and and set up a life there somehow. And you know what I've learned from thinking about all of this today, because this has really been on my mind, is that everything just takes steps. That's all it is. I think that we have this idea that we somehow have to make these huge leaps or something, and that if we can't make huge leaps ahead in life, that there's something wrong with us. But it just can't work like that because you can only see the step that's right in front of you, and you can't see anything beyond that because it's not how human beings are designed. We're not designed to see the second step or the third or the fourth. We can only see what's right here and act on this, take this step. And this is the beautiful thing, is that we take that step and then we see what the next one is and we take that one and so on and so forth. Sometimes we might go in a direction and we realize, oh, actually that's not what I want to be doing. As soon as we have that idea of, oh, that's not exactly what I want to be doing, we get a new idea that says, okay, why don't you try this? We act as if life is somehow conspiring against us and that we have to work really hard to get all of these new ideas. We don't. They are presented to us, and all we need to do is act on them. So for example, one of the things that I've kind of mentioned throughout several of these videos is that I want to take my business in a new direction, and I'm really excited about what this could mean, not just for me but for the people in my community. And I have no idea what the second step is. I only know what the first one is, which is to start to let people know what it is that I want to help them with, that I want to help them in this new area, and, you know, see where that leads. I don't have to know what I should do a month from now or 2 months from now or 6 months from now. I don't need to know that. And yet that's what a lot of people seem to think, is that if they don't know, you know, exactly every single step along this trajectory right now, they shouldn't take that first step. Well, I wouldn't be here in Luxembourg on a Friday, a random Friday, if I hadn't just taken that first step and said, I need to leave this job. And go do something that's more fulfilling to me, or I want to move to France, so what do I need to do? What step do I need to take first to start to make that happen? So I would love to know in the comments, is that what stops you sometimes, is not knowing all of the steps before you even start to go in a certain direction? Because if that's what you're waiting for, if you're waiting for all of those answers to appear to you right now you don't have to worry about that because when you need an answer, it will come to you. It just will, because that is how human beings are actually designed. So I am going to go to bed now because I have been awake for a very long time today. I got up at about 4:30 AM, so the editing of this video and the posting of this video will have to happen tomorrow. And I would really love to know your thoughts. Thank you so much for being on this journey with me, and I will talk to you later. Bye!
