I’M BOLD!!!
My husband and I have been sky diving twice. Possibly the best thrill out there. We’re gonna go as many times as possible because once we have kiddos, the risk involved if something goes wrong….don’t want to leave our kids parentless!

Stephanie says
I’M BOLD!… but haven’t done anything too exciting in awhile. It’s time for some adventure!

I’M BOLD….last year quit a job I loved to spend time with my elderly Mother, now I’m taking charge of my body with Yoga classes, and embarking on creating jewelry out of my home. Things are looking good…I’m not waiting for the storm to pass but learning to dance in the rain!

I’M BOLD!!
I’ve been skydiving a few times, but it was much scarier to move to a new city and away from family. But 11 years, 2 kids and a mortgage later – we’re still lovin’ it!

I’m Bold! I travelled the length of Belize and Mexico with my sister right after college without any money or any plans (as in-no hotel rooms, bus tickets, travel plans)! We were so naive but we made it back safely, with only two very scary incidents and a lifetime of memories!

I quit my job without having another one because I was extremely stressed out and unhappy. It ended up being the best decision I ever made in my life!
Tricia says
I’M BOLD! I’ve impulsively cut off my locks – not once, not twice but 3 times on a whim and donated them each time. Very rewarding and bold experience each time!

Julie Ruiz says
I’m BOLD…I fought off a crazy assailant who attacked me in a public place. I broke his hand with an old school public telephone receiver (remember those?). The crowd around us rushed in to help me, too. It was pretty exciting. I’m not a physically aggressive person, so I never would have known I had it in me to fight back.
JessG says
I’M BOLD!

I’m bold! I impulsively took a trip to a small village outside Florence because I love Renaissance art and heard about a great fresco on the walls of one of the abbeys there. And I don’t speak a lick of Italian!
Melissa says
I’m bold, or at least pretend to be when needed!
Tami says
I’M BOLD! I went skydiving — in Minnesota — in January! Did I mention the sub-zero temperature, and the plane engine not wanting to start because of the cold. It was my second date with the boy I knew I would marry someday, and therefore I had to make a BOLD impression. And I did. We’ve been happily married for 3 years!
