ABOUT

I had it all.

The education. The six-figured income. The perfect guy. The toys. And I was living this dream in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

I played by ‘the rules’ and did all the things that were expected of me – jumping through the hoops like any good little girl should.

But it wasn’t the life I signed up for.

Then it happened.

One day I woke up on the other side of the bed and I was struck by the thought:

“I can be more than this.”

And it consumed me.

I wanted to feel like I was making a difference in the world – but realized I first needed to start making a difference in mine. Change my mind, change my life…change the world.

So I gave myself a ‘permission slip’ to walk away from life as I knew it.

I walked away – leaving my comfort zone – in order to start living an unconventional life that just wasn’t part of my game plan. I began to do things I’ve never done before by forcing encouraging myself into ‘direct experience’.

Not all adventures are fun, I noticed.

A lot of them are uncomfortable and sometimes scary. Always challenging in some way. After all, if they weren’t at least a bit uncomfortable or challenging, they wouldn’t exactly be much of an adventure.

I feel like I’m on what can only be described as “The Adventure Diet.”

It’s like I’m getting a taste of different worlds, glimpsing into the alternative realities of life. Doing things I know absolutely nothing about right here in my own back yard.

With a quest for knowledge and a thirst for adventure, Patricia Taylor is living proof that sometimes life is an unexpected adventure just waiting to happen.
