A YouTube street-interview video (by Stacey Lauren) in which an interviewer asks people what recent accomplishments they are proud of. Responses in this chunk include: a teacher reflecting on 36 years of service and enjoying the benefits of children in retirement; a person who put a steep roof on their house while afraid of heights (used a harness); someone restarting a master’s degree; and travel plans (a 21-day holiday: 14 days on land and 7 days aboard MSC Grandiosa, visiting 10 countries). The tone is conversational and celebratory.

Chapters
Well, my dream has become a reality. As a teacher for 36 years, I worked hard and I educated my children. Today, I am reaping the benefits of my children. In fact, that was the best investment made.
What is something you've done recently that you are most proud of?
Most recently reflected on the past year of Kings New Zealand. I feel like it's a product of mine. I'm always big on reflection as a huge role towards learning both ourselves and how we want to move towards the future. So, yeah, I have a podcast, do the Thing and it's all about, like helping people kind of go after the things they want. Like take a trip to France. Where are you going? I'm going to. Well, we're going to Madrid, but we're on the same flight as you to Paris. Yeah, we were saying, like we did we want to go with someone that's like not on the same flight. So if we embarrass ourselves. No, it's not. I won't judge you. So. So I really want to know, like, what's something you've done recently that you're really proud of?
Put a roof on my house. It was really hard and really steep and I'm afraid of heights. So wait, you did it yourself? Yeah. Oh my God. Yeah, it was very steep and yeah, I was in a harness the whole time and it saved a lot of money. It was really fun and yeah, so cool. My first question is, and I think I know the answer, but I'd love to hear it again, is what is something you've done recently that you're really proud of? Well, my dream has become a reality. As a teacher for 36 years, I worked hard and I educated my children. Today, I am reaping the benefits of my children. In fact, that was the best investment made. It's paying the dividends now with this holiday, the 21 day holiday. 14 days on land here in Europe with 7 days on the MSC, the Grandiosa. So visiting 10 countries is definitely a dream come true for me and my husband. So this is our retirement gift. So my first question, and you can feel free to ask this together or individually, is what's something you've done recently that you're really proud of? Well, I guess this trip, we wanted to travel internationally together and.
Right. So I did take them to US office.
Pretty big thing for me. But I'm glad I.
