Bravery

Written By Astrid Langedijk

2019: From traveling and taking my life on the road with an airstream while working a full-time job, I had never driven a truck before, nor pulled a 5500 lbs airstream through mountains and 30 states. But I bought the airstream, then the truck, and realized I just challenge myself throughout life. What was I thinking, I always drove in sporty-elegant 2 door cars, living in an oceanfront condo that I renovated entirely myself (with a contractor!) and I was ready to trade in this fancy life I always dreamed about, to fulfill my next dream, travel around the USA? Simply said, many thought “what is she doing”, but then everyone started living vicariously through me, especially women from around the world because I was doing what they only dreamed of doing. Now I had to claim my ticket to prove I could do it, for myself! You see, the last relationship took a toll on me and I made the promise that the airstream journey was about getting to know myself, what my old patterns were/ behaviors, and who I am, to my core. Off we went and it was one of the very best things I have done for myself. Was it easy, no, was it worth it? Absolutely! It was a tough journey, everything that could possibly go wrong did! Yet, I would get up again, after all, alarms, flat tires, sewer all over me, hitch almost breaking loose, leaks, almost exploding due to sun panel. Why am I sharing this? Our lives and how we evolve are necessary and as my journey continued, I learned how to find fun in all the ugly moments and would burst in laughing as nothing could get me down…I was already there….and THAT is where the breakthroughs came. Complete surrender to what was true!! My Journey on the road was no different than everyday life, so ‘ let’s do this and get you back on the road of bravery and abundance because my life has never been so full and beautiful.

Personal note by Astrid:

In the 90s, I successfully completed, Public Relations & Marketing bachelors degree both completed in the Netherlands, Europe. Then I became a nanny in Spain and worked my way through the hospitality chain, from events manager to sales manager and quickly I realized with being 19, it was time to go back to the Netherlands and study again. This was my second bachelors degree Tourism Management. Throughout life I lived in Holland, France, Spain, Curacao and in the USA since 2000.

Having a true passion for people, knowledge, cultures, spirituality, backgrounds, diversity, languages and communication, it was part of my jump to live my best life, every day! From India, to visiting temples and learning about Hinduism, to Peru and having Shamanic and Plant Medicinal journeys to visiting Teotihuacan and rebirthing my life with Toltec Wisdom, to visiting sacred places in the USA, Europe and Asia, I truly am grateful and excited to have been able to see so much of the world and its beautiful population. I am who I am today, because of my travel and being open to meeting people. It widened my horizon in incredible ways and opened doors to what I thought was impossible at the time.

See, I am no different than you, life continues to curve, have u-turns and T-splits, but while driving on my own personal highway, I have come

to embrace duality, because where there is stress, anxiety, anger, there can be peace, joy and happiness as well, it just depends on what you want to see! It takes practice but I want you to have the life I have created for myself, in your own unique and beautiful way!
