Whatever You Do, Don't Freak Out!


What a crazy couple of weeks! So much has happened.A couple of weeks ago, my daughter (17 and a new driver) was in a horrible car accident while I was traveling. I am sitting on the
airplane waiting to get off the plane and I get a text “don’t freak out –but you need to call me when you land”

Okay, now let me ask you, what do you think I did when I received that message? You guess it – I freaked out! When I was able to get on the phone, I learned that my baby girl was in an accident and she was currently in the emergency room. I was traveling so I was hundreds of miles away and there were over 200 people in my way to get off the plane and my brain was racing. Dan kept assuring me that she was fine and the tests were precautionary and that I should not return home and that he had it under control. I sat in the airport for hours wondering what I should do – stay or go home.


At times like this, faith is so important. Sometimes in both our personal lives and in our business lives, we need to have faith in others and faith in ourselves. As it turned out, I did stay in Texas and trusted that everything was okay and it turns out everything was.
