We Dared Greatly, The Story of our Sailing Adventure

It’s been a crazy few years, hasn’t it?

I’ll bet I’m not the only one who thought about running away from it all. I dreamed of downsizing, of spending more time with my husband and sons. I was tired of the news and the weather and my suburban, American life.

Maybe, like me, you’re in the sailing and tiny-house Facebook groups, subscribed to the YouTube channels, and reading all the books. You see people brave enough to take the leap who are living amazing, unconventional lives. It looks so sexy, so easy, so…free.

Well, we did it. We took the leap. We quit our jobs, got rid of most of our stuff, and off we went.

Sounds like a dream, right? And it was…kind of. Let’s just say, it was an adventure.

We Dared Greatly is our story of selling it all to go live on a sailboat.

Molly Ann Monahan, the short story:

She considers herself a jane-of-all-trades, Renaissance woman kinda girl. She loves exploring the space between opposites, learning something new every day, and then sharing what she’s learned. Philosophizing about the big questions in life is a favorite past-time, and she finally figured out that living life out loud is much better than living it on mute.
