Project 100 Journeys

Last October, I completed a goal that had been over two years in the making: visiting all 7 Wonders of the New World. It was everything I hoped it would be—eye-opening, humbling, and unforgettable.

But afterward, I found myself asking: What now? What comes after chasing a dream and catching it? Back to a 9-5 desk job? Sitting in a control room 12 hrs a day? Waitressing?

That’s when the idea hit me—what if I didn’t just pick one goal… what if I chose a hundred?

100 Journeys was born from that moment. Not a checklist, not a bucket list—but a commitment to doing the things I truly care about. Things that excite me, challenge me, scare me, and shape me.

Some of them will take me across the world. Others will ask me to look inward. A few I may never complete—and that’s the point. This isn’t about perfection. It’s about intention.

I’ll be telling the story of each one, whether or not there’s a camera in my hand. Because this project isn’t about the highlight reel. It’s about living fully, and sharing that process honestly.

This is 100 Journeys—and it starts now.
