Try the latte. Make the leap.

Surprises are everywhere, even in breakfast orders.

This week, I threw caution to the wind and ordered a mysterious “pink iced latte” at a café in Aachen. My non-existent German offered no clues, but I was feeling adventurous, so I went for it.
Rose-infused? Maybe.
First sip: Earthy. Bold. Unexpected.
Turns out, it was beetroot. Unusual? Absolutely. Delicious? Surprisingly so.
It reminded me how often the unexpected turns out better than we imagine. Especially when we take a leap:
🌱 Pitching a dream publication with zero experience… and getting a “yes.”
🧭 Moving to a town where I knew no one…and finding a community.
✨ Starting a new business…and learning I was capable of far more than I thought.
What do these moments have in common?
They all began by nudging doubt, fear and the comfort zone to one side and taking that one step.
