estate but also into her life—her fears, her triumphs, and her relentless drive to keep growing. It was seeing an old friend through a new lens—one that made me appreciate her journey even more. As we parted ways, I couldn’t help but reflect on something Sydney said that stuck with me: “There’s always more to know.” It’s a simple truth, but one that carries so much weight. We open ourselves up, not just to

being judged, but to learning, to growing, and to making space for the new and better things that lie ahead. In many ways, we’re all open houses—offering glimpses of our lives to those who pass by, hoping they see the value we’ve created and the potential in what we’re still building. So, the next time you find yourself at an open house, reading one of my articles, or simply talking to strangers in the grocery

store, take a moment to appreciate the unique stories hidden in those little details shared. Sometimes, just like when getting a house ready to sell, it takes a lot to clean it up, fix the defects, and make it presentable. And that’s a lot like life. But the rewards of moving on to something new are always worth the effort.
