The Rejuvenating Power of Maverick Living By Sandy McDougall, Guest Blogger

After decades of being a responsible partner, mother, and major manager of my family household, I went on my summer 2014 Maverick Road Trip and took a 5-week long hiatus from it all. Wow! That was truly refreshing.

After much business building from my desk and office, I took the show on the road, inventing ways for my work to continue using the powers of technology and my own ingenuity. Wow! That was truly refreshing.

After many weeks experiencing summer in the suburbs, I found myself in mountains, on lakes, in the woods, by the ocean, and out traveling on the open road. Wow! That was truly refreshing.

After long months of communicating with many dear friends and family only intermittently and primarily by phone and email, I was actually in their homes re-connecting with them in person. Wow! That was truly refreshing.

After years of dreaming about combining adventure and creativity with purposeful work providing positive energy to others, my dream became reality. Wow! That was truly refreshing.

After I committed 100% to the Maverick Road Trip, any number of creative ideas came to me about how to make the experience more fun, more fruitful, more effective, and more meaningful to me and to those I met. Wow! That was truly refreshing.
