Leone shares how a surf trip to Peru's legendary waves became so much more than a physical adventure. Battling exhaustion, fear, and a lost surfboard on day one, she was rescued by a mysterious, smiling local surfer who reminded her that joy is possible even in chaos. Throughout the week, she found deep clarity about her purpose—leading her to commit to becoming a life coach and writing a book called Take a Chance on You. Leone’s story is a beautiful blend of courage, humor, and the magic that comes from saying yes to the unknown.
