Expansion and Movement

March 14, 2023
“Never say never.” I’ve heard that phrase throughout my life and mostly blown it off. These days, it’s the mantra by which I’ve been living. "I’ll never leave the ranch. I’ll never move away from California. I’ll never be in another romantic relationship." These are things I said -- out loud and in...
