Next40: The Art of Becoming
If you read my essay on the art of letting go, you know I am spending my 39th year tackling a brutal list of bets. Project Next40 isn't just a bucket list; this is my year-long experiment in stepping out of my comfort zone and redefining who I am before turning 40. I have categorized these evolving goals by the actions that demand consistency over perfection.

This page is the master hub. The dashboard tracks the hard numbers, while the sections below hold the peak logs, the setbacks, and deeper reflections whenever the journey sparks them. For quick monthly updates, you can follow along on my social media.

Rescue on multi-pitch
All was quiet until suddenly, a sharp cry echoed through the air. We froze, knowing what it meant. Someone had fallen. We shouted out J's name, but the only response was an eerie silence. Panic set in as we tried the radio, but there was no answer. Our hearts pounding, we clung to the rope, waiting for any sign of life, but we knew in our bones that something terrible had just occurred.
