"My favourite takeaways from the quest - own myself fully, make my own choices"
Nidhi discovered the power of owning mistakes rather than hiding them. Inspired by Maye's unapologetic authenticity, they learned that self-love, kindness, and pursuing desires can beautifully coexist in a life well lived.
Maye's storytelling reminds me of my mother's and grandmother's stories. They would tell stories in a loving, assertive and authoritative way, the only difference I noticed was that they never talked about their failures or like Maye did. Maye Musk owns herself unapologetically, and I found that fascinating. It made me feel ok to make mistakes, own them and course correct rather than bury them under the carpet and keep cribbing about why the carpet stinks everyday.
My favourite takeaways from the quest - own myself fully, make my own choices..day after day everyday, ask for anything that I want and have a good sense of humour. Kindness for others, passion for my desires and self love, all can go hand in hand. Just the perfect recipe to create a live well lived :)
