Embracing Growth: Highlights from This Year’s CDL Talk

Last week, we had the privilege of attending the CDL Talks, an inspiring conference aimed at motivating and encouraging young people to step out of their comfort zones and embrace new challenges. This year’s theme was all about the importance of pushing boundaries, taking risks, and growing beyond what feels familiar.

The talk featured several guest speakers, each sharing their personal experiences and valuable insights about how stepping outside of one’s comfort zone can lead to incredible personal growth. The speakers spoke about overcoming fears, embracing uncertainty, and taking bold steps toward achieving your goals.

Our boarders were deeply engaged throughout the event, and it sparked some great conversations afterward. It was a powerful reminder that growth often happens when we face discomfort and that it’s okay to take risks in order to achieve something meaningful.

We are so proud of our girls for being part of such an enriching experience. The CDL Talks was an important opportunity for them to reflect on their own journeys and understand the power of stepping outside their comfort zones. It’s a message we hope will stay with them as they continue to grow, challenge themselves, and pursue their dreams.
