The Emotional Journey of Chasing Your Dream

Dreaming is just the start. The journey is where it gets real. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month and to celebrate the launch of our new giveback sneaker style, we’re sharing stories from our Daydreamer community focused on the emotional journey of chasing your dreams and the importance of nurturing yourself along the way.

"I’m stubborn as hell, and I have grit—I don’t think this company would exist if I didn’t. I knew I wanted a challenge, but I’ve had to dig deeper and reach depths I didn’t even know I had. There have been times when I’m literally just lying on the floor of my office, my body is numb with stress, and tears are streaming down my face. I put a sticky note on the underside of a shelf that is just above my head that says, ‘You got this! You are making a difference.’"

"Everyone wants something out of life but not everyone takes a chance on it. But it’s okay if you fail because it’s not a loss, it’s just learning one way of not doing it the next time. So keep that drive and maintain the courage because the only person who can prevent you from doing what you want to do is the one in the mirror."

"Can you imagine if we all showed up as authentically as we could and stopped getting in our own way? How much greater and grander the world would be? You are a mirror and a torch for everyone else around you. If you heal yourself, everyone around you will see that and want to do the same. Don’t underestimate that power."

"So many of us are trying so hard to make the outside look good that we forget to make the inside feel good. I think that’s a question we need to ask ourselves a lot when we’re showing up in the world: do I want to look good or feel good? That’s part of the advice I give everyone who isn’t sure about their dream yet: figure out what you don’t want to do and let that guide you."
