Going for It: Woman Warrior

Experiencing new life in California

As my plane landed in Los Angeles last night, I could not help but think about all of the people who have come to California over the years in pursuit of a dream.  My mom made the journey as an aspiring actress when she was 18.  Now it is my turn.

Aside from working with Bandsintown, my life feels very much like a blank slate, bursting with possibility and opportunity.  I know the vision that brought me here, one that I've been honing in on for some time and am ready to bring to fruition. The funny thing is, I don't feel a sense of urgency to figure it out, I just want to experience each and every moment of my new life in full and be receptive to new opportunities.  

Amber Lambke, an artist and entrepreneur who recently relocated from San Francisco to New York City, eloquently sums it up in describing her decision to move: "Now is not about looking for answers because we don't yet know their meaning. Now is about living for the question and experiencing the answer."
