291: Have Faith to Step Into the Unknown

Betsy talks about taking a step into the unknown. She challenges you to place your faith in trusting that you can grow and expand to meet any challenge that comes in the way of getting to where you want to go. Because when we look back on our lives, on the things that define who we are, we don’t really remember the things that were simple and easy. We remember the things that had an impact because they caused us to shift and grow. >>> Connect with Betsy on IG @betsypake Transcription: Hello fellow adventurers. Hi, welcome to the show today. If you’re new here, Hi. Thanks for being here. If you’ve been here for a while, Hi, how’s it going? I’m excited to be here today because, um, well, I’m still in Iceland. Alright. So it’s like, I feel like this is I feel like I let me pause. I’ve had an amazing time. And I still have almost a full week to go. And it’s gotten to the point where people are starting to message me, like, how long are you going to be there? So I know it feels like a long time. And it’s starting to feel like a little like, Okay, I’m ready. I’m starting to feel ready to go back to like, a schedule, you know, I’m really, really enjoying the adventure and having so much novelty. You know, this morning, I actually posted it on on Instagram, maybe it was yesterday morning, although this happens every morning. But I came out of the little cabin where we’re staying. And I just like look around. And it’s I don’t even have words for how amazing it is and how incredible it looks. You guys remember that show? The Truman Show? It had Jim Carrey in it. And he was like, living a life that was being taped, like for TV. So everybody was watching his life. But he didn’t know that. So everyone in his life were actors. But the thing that always like stuck out to me is that the environment that he that that movie takes place in the environment that Truman is living in is like all manufactured. So it’s perfect, right? It’s like, super perfect. And at one point, I’m going to assume you’ve seen this movie because it’s really old. But at one point towards the end, he actually goes out and is able to touch like the edge of the environment. Right? So he realizes, really, he’s in a soundstage. Right? So it’s like, like, like when you make a movie. And so I can’t I keep feeling like, is this real? There’s something about this, that feels really, like not real. And it’s, you know, the pictures I’ve been posting, it just doesn’t it? It doesn’t do it any kind of justice. It’s magnificent, really. And I’m not sure I’ve ever used that word before in my life, but it is magnificent. So anyway, I had I posted the other day when I walked out of the cabin, and there’s just like, everywhere around me is just like amazing. So had such a good time. And I have to say I’m going to do a huge episode on like, everywhere I’ve gone and the travels and you know if you can come to Iceland come to Iceland. And I’m going to share my itinerary. I know, but I want to do that episode when I’m complete, you know, so like when everything has been completed and done. So I feel like anytime we have an adventure or anytime we want to experience something new. The reason is because we want to feel a certain way. Right? Everything that we want to have in our lives, or be in our lives or do in our lives is because we believe that that’s going to give us a certain kind of feeling. And I know that there are times where I have gone headfirst into an adept endeavor, knowing I’m going to have the good feelings that I want.
