Wherever you are, you are, whatever you do, have a nice day.

When we're young, we have an amazing positive outlook about how great life is going to be,

but somewhere along the line we forget to dream and end up settling.

Join up dots features amazing people who refuse to give up and chose to go after their dreams.

that and didn't waste a single moment. She quit her job as a national award-winning

teacher to pursue her lifelong dream to be a road comic and her life has become one amazing adventure.

She's entertained US troops in Iraq and Kuwait, performed in comedy clubs in 40 states and has been to Africa

four times to perform for Ugandan audiences in two of their tribal languages
