What have you chosen in life that changed you?
I like to think that everyone on this earth is someone who can change us for the better, someone we can learn from, share life with, and celebrate who they are.
People like Marco are why I continue to believe that to be true. I spent the past week in Sardinia, and being greeted by Marco in the mornings and sitting and talking in the afternoons quickly became a highlight of my time there
Marco shared with me what it has been in life to make choices, to step towards big changes and step away from parts of life he knew he didn’t want. He shares what it means to listen to someone, to make them feel seen, and why putting yourself in places you are not known allows us to know ourselves and others
We chat about focus and the determination it takes to complete what you’re are dreaming of, how focus can be a gift, but one if we aren’t careful, can take away from what matters most, and how lack of confidence can keep us from knowing others if we let it.
Marco is someone that is thoughtful and kind, someone that presses in to connecting with others and learning how they have experienced life, he is someone that I witnessed care and communicate with others in a way that says “I see you and you matter”
I don’t think it takes much in this life to value another, and I agree with Marco that this world would be a better place if we listened more to learn and assumed a little less. If we weren’t afraid, or even if we were, if we took the time to share moments with others.
So tune in today and meet Marco, someone that reminded how softness, morning greetings, and simple questions can lead to connections that remind us the value in knowing another
And to you Marco thank you, thank you for sharing time with me, for the way you made me feel a sense of ease around you, for the conversations and the chance to know you more. For the way you allowed me to know a part of your life and the intentionality in which you show up in this world. I wish you all the best as you continue to pursue whatever this life brings you my friend
