I came across this fun video during the Barbie movie weekend.

There's a time in your life when you realize where you want to be, and for most of us, it's later in life.  Knowing what you want to do in life at a young age is when life is exciting.  Following through with those goals and dreams is the hard part.  I knew I wanted to be a rock star but had zero follow-throughs and confidence.  Luckily for my daughter Julia she knew she wanted to entertain, funneling into professional wrestling.

She decided around age twelve that she wanted to be a professional wrestler. I'm unsure why as parents, we always believed she could make it happen.  Maybe it's how she wasn't shy to show off her Michael Jackson moves in front of the family, wearing what she wanted without giving a crap what others thought?  One part of making her dream come true was how she spoke of her goals were going to happen.  When a naysayer said they didn't believe it could happen, she turned that negative vibe into fuel to prove them wrong.

I'm very proud to share my point of view of Julia's story, as I wish I had that determination at a young age. Unfortunately, I'm in my 40's and trying to figure out what I want to be.  I believe there are reasons people and opportunities set in front of us.  I admire anyone willing to take a leap of faith, face failure, and follow their heart.

This weekend I am going to the Target Center to see a show put on by AEW, the company my daughter performs as a professional wrestler.  It seems like yesterday we were going to cheerleading competitions, including nationals, and driving her to meet with Ken Anderson to hand Julia over to the wrestling world.  So excited to see what Friday and Saturday bring at Target Center for the big show!
