  • For those of you that have been following along for awhile you’ve heard this before. But I wanted to share how this tagline has changed for me over the past few years. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✈️ When I started Beautiful Detour I was dropping out of college and moving to Australia. I didn’t know what was next for me or that I would decide after a year and a half to move back to SLC and finish my degree. Or that I would take a job before I graduated and quit that job one year later to do my own thing. All I knew at each of these cross roads is I didn’t want to sacrifice being happy for the right time or perfect situation. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 💕 My tagline never put a bucket list on hold doesn’t only apply to traveling the world anymore. Now it means creating a business and a life that I am obsessed with. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Share this post to remind people that they should never put any part of their bucket list on hold.
