Love her art! Boldest move ever was actually calling a guy who emailed me on Match.com. 4 years later, we’ve been happily married for almost 3 years :) I guess I should be bold more often…

I’m Bold!
My husband and I went zip-lining in Belize (and also swam with sharks in Punta Cana). I am not afraid of heights but had a moment at the top of the tallest tower (before stepping off) when I silently asked myself if I’d gone crazy! :-) It was a blast though and I’d do it again in a heartbeat!
Katie B says

I’M BOLD!!!!
Against the advice of every single person I knew, I moved my entire life for a boy- I had no job, no place to live, no family or friends, just him. It was scary and crazy, but it turned out okay- we’re married now!
Kayla D. says

JMB says
“I’M BOLD!!” A bunch of years ago, I ended my job on a Tuesday, moved on Wednesday with what would fit in my tiny car to an area where I knew not a soul and started my new job on Thursday. I will say, the older I get, the more challenging it can be to BE BOLD :o)
Christa says
I’M BOLD!
I moved to Australia on my own when I was 18. I’m back here (Canada) now with my Aussie husband and little family, but it was a great adventure at the time!
Kristy says
I’m Bold! Ok, really I’m not. But I did come to work today and it’s -30 degrees outside, surely that counts for something right?
Katie says
I’M BOLD!
My husband I got married at age 20, people said we were crazy, with college to finish and grad school for my husband. But we were in love then and now. And neither one of us regrets a thing. I think that’s bold.

I’m BOLD
The boldest thing I ever did was to fly to Zimbabwe to spend a month with a guy I had known for just a few weeks — and there was over a year between that meeting and my visit. Fortunately we still got along great and were soon “more than friends”. (Unfortunately, he got seriously ill and I got charged by elephants… but that’s another story.)
Dana says

Aimee says
I’M BOLD! I’m following my husband around the world with his career as an Air Force Pilot…so many new and interesting places that “regular life” just wouldn’t take us! I’m bold because I jump into new situations time after time, always looking for adventure.
