Life is a mosaic made up of experiences and interactions. Small rituals can help us keep the memories of loved ones alive. Travel isn’t just about the destination; it’s about bringing pieces of those experiences home. Lisa encourages us to consciously choose which moments to cherish and which to let go. And, rather than returning unchanged from adventures, she suggests incorporating small, meaningful habits into our daily routines to foster growth. Collect your moments and make them count!
