The number one reason why I love being a lifecoach is because I get to work with the most amazing individuals. And I mean that! I literally get to spend my day with women who are nothing short of brilliant, immensely passionate, and willing to take charge of where their lives are going. I get to facilitate their growth by giving them the right tools so they can confidently pinpoint their passion and figure out a clear, FUN roadmap to stop putting their biggest dreams on hold. I mean, just writing this out makes me all giddy inside because I honestly feel so lucky.

The best part is that I continue to learn from my clients non-stop and all the time as well. I truly believe that growth is never a solitary experience. Whenever something or someone changes or shifts, everything around them changes or shifts as well. That's what being in a dynamic environment means. That's what being alive is all about.

The reason I am telling you this is because last week one of my clients shared with me what I thought was just the best question ever. She asked:

What 10 things do you most love about being alive?

(In no particular order!)

You know a question is amazing if the questions itself makes you happy even before you answer it : )

When I got home that night, I decided to send the question to some of my best friends. They shared their answers with me and now, I would love to share their answers with you as well in order to stimulate your own thoughts about WHAT YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT BEING ALIVE.

Here are some of their answers:
