I’m BOLD!
I have gone skydiving twice before… but more exhilarating was making the first (tipsy) move on my husband, then just my casual acquaintance. That worked out pretty well for me: yay bold!

Holly R. says
I’m bold!
It may not seem like a big deal to most people, but a few years ago on a cruise with my family, I went snorkeling out in the ocean…which is CRAZY for me because I am terrified of swimming with any fish bigger than a minnow. And even then, I’m afraid of being in water with a school of minnows…so the whole swimming in water with small sharks and barracuda = crazy brave of me :)

Kara says
I’M BOLD! (though not really… but I really like her artwork/style!)

Boldest recent thing… I decided last year that I would go back to school and finish my undergraduate, after four years and two kids. The thought terrified me for a number of reasons, but I am so glad I did it. I am loving learning again, and I can’t wait to get into graduate work!

Emily says
I’M BOLD!
During undergrad– at age 19– I took an internship 500 miles from home in a “big city” for six months. I lived on my own in an apartment and learned my way around the city while working full-time as the only female in an engineering team of 9 guys. I loved it and count those months as some of the most influential in my life (now that I’m a a wise old 20-something…)!
