                              Brave Monday

"You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step."

I have to admit — I'm honestly a little shocked by how much interest our blog is getting right now. What started as something small and personal has grown faster than we ever expected.

We've had a few technical issues along the way — especially managing two languages at once — but we're finally up and running with both ModigMandag in Norwegian and Brave Monday in English. And the interest, especially from our new English readers, is already well beyond anything we imagined.

Raymond and I don't claim to be experts. But between us, we have something that's maybe more important: a huge amount of lived experience. Honest, difficult, and hard-earned. That's what we write from.

We hope this blog gives you something — a thought, a feeling, maybe even a turning point. It takes time to create, but we enjoy doing it. And if even one or two people decide to change course after reading something here, then we're more than happy.

We're not perfect. This blog isn't perfect.
But it's real. And that's what matters to us — and hopefully to you, too.

So here's to another Monday.
Take the first step. You don't need to see the whole staircase just yet.
