The 7 Sins

Envy:

Whose shoes would you like to walk in?

I have to say that I香蕉视频直播檓 pretty happy walking in mine most of the time (hats off to John Fluevog for great style and amazingly comfortable shoes), but I香蕉视频直播檇 love to have walked in Steve Nash香蕉视频直播檚 shoes during his NBA run. I think Steve is the epitome of hard work and focus equalling success. In a world of brash big talkers, Steve moved faster, thought smarter and delivered with grace and style. What an amazing ambassador for Canada!

Gluttony:

What is the food you could eat over and over again?

I香蕉视频直播檓 addicted to the Prawn Phad Thai from Ba香蕉视频直播檃n Thai Wok & Bar. It香蕉视频直播檚 amazing! Also pretzels香蕉视频直播攔idiculous香蕉视频直播攂ut they have to have just the right amount of salt.

Greed:

You香蕉视频直播檙e given $1 million that you have to spend selfishly. What would you spend it on?

Pre-COVID-19, I wouldn香蕉视频直播檛 hesitate to say world travel and enjoying new culinary experiences. Now, I think it would be having a sunny little getaway place on one of the Gulf Islands to share with family and friends香蕉视频直播攁nd a faster boat to come and go!

Wrath:

Pet peeves?

Conceit, laziness and, the worst, entitlement.

Sloth:

Where would you spend a long time doing nothing?

I don香蕉视频直播檛 like to sit still for very long, but I香蕉视频直播檓 quite happy doing nothing on the beach at Sidney Spit, or up in Desolation Sound, provided 香蕉视频直播渘othing香蕉视频直播� includes some wine, fresh prawns or crab on the portable barbecue, and some good music and friends to share it with!

Pride:

What is the one thing you香蕉视频直播檙e secretly proud of?

On the play side, I香蕉视频直播檝e been lucky to have been able to compete and win at some top-level Hunter Jumper competitions in New York, DC, Kentucky, Pennsylvania and California. It香蕉视频直播檚 a special partnership with the right horse, and a pretty incredible feeling to win under pressure. With real estate, I香蕉视频直播檓 proud to be the highest-selling agent in Victoria and will be the first to reach the billion-dollar milestone in overall sales this year. I香蕉视频直播檓 grateful to be able to do what I love, and lucky to live in such a special place in the world! Since COVID, I know I definitely appreciate it more than ever.

Lust:

What makes your heart beat faster?

Speed. Winning. Making the deal happen and calling the clients to tell them. Music, dancing, great food and wine, laughing so hard it hurts. And of course, being in love!
