So natural! We grown-ups don't have/make as many chances, so we've got to make them for ourselves.

Love this Emily. I remember putting my kids on a rickety old chair life on a mountain in Italy. There were no safety precautions. It seemed safe. Autonomy and self choice. We get to choose. Thanks for the prompt.

Thanks for sharing this story Cara! You get it. We're the ones most incentivized to make decisions that keep us alive, and part of thriving is choosing!
