I’ve been thinking about Julia Child. Her 100th birthday just passed this week. She was an amazing woman, who, to this day, is an inspiration to me. Not because of her cooking, no. But because of whom she was as a person. She discovered late in life who she was truly meant to be. And she was passionate. Being authentic takes a great deal of hard, sometimes frightening work. Being true to who you are, and in fact, even knowing who you are is a life-long journey.
