i will sail across oceans

This is what 5 years of footage boiled down looks like. Somehow Lou was able to find all the best moments from all different chapters of our life, filmed all over the world, and unite it all with a theme that is so dear to our hearts.

Angela Duckworth says, “…interests are not discovered through introspection. Instead, interests are triggered by interactions with the outside world. The process of interest discovery can be messy, serendipitous, and inefficient. This is because you can’t really predict with certainty what will capture your attention and what won’t…Without experimenting, you can’t figure out which interests will stick, and which won’t.” And that’s what we try to do with this channel – be brave, be creative, be honest and push ourselves to interact with the world in the biggest way we know how (even when it’s scary!). Our greatest hope is that these videos bring joy and creative inspiration into your life. And that’s one of the big reasons we decided to make this line of jewelry. Having a physical reminder around my neck of my grit always pushed me in the right direction these past few years. It helped me keep going on difficult hikes, stick with van life dreams when bureaucracy tried to get us down, and I held on tight as we learned to sail this past summer. So whether you buy a necklace or not, I hope that this video is a reminder to you that you can do anything you set your mind to and that you’re stronger than you realize.

We cannot wait to share the 5 separate Grit Rock collections with you next week (March 16, 2021, @ 11 am est) There will be necklaces with stones from Spain, Portugal, Iceland, Italy, and Greece all handmade by Lou and one of a kind. They will be available at wildweroam.com/store

Thank you for all the love and support over the years! You inspire us so much to pursue our dreams and hope that these necklaces can be an inspiration to you 🙂

Big hugs,
Dana & Lou

0:18 – https://youtu.be/wBdMMLqi61E?t=18 – past dana, future dana – this idea was inspired by our dear friend Fran Meneses, who has been a huge inspiration to Lou and me, especially when it comes to the power of self-care. She regularly talks about how she will make the bed for future Fran, or how grateful she is that past Fran made her lunch, these little ways to shift a mindset to do nice things for yourself have really stuck with us! You can find her on Instagram at @frannerd or on youtube at the same name 🙂

1:30 – https://youtu.be/wBdMMLqi61E?t=90 – Angela Duckworth “Grit is passion and perseverance for very longterm goals. Grit is sticking with your future day in, day out, not just for the week, not just for the month, but for years and working really hard to make that future a reality.”
