Watch The Ride of My Life – Day 9

Welcome to The Ride of My Life Podcast Day 9!

I’m Caroline Rena and I will be sharing with you what it will be like to go out on the road for a few months, while working through the emotions and challenges that go along with it. As I develop my knowledge and awareness, I hope to connect with while I am on this journey.

Big things are happening.

I was very close to being at the end of my lease and things were getting too close for comfort for a bit. I am finding that when that happens, it gives me the chance to really just be ok with whatever is going on and not freak out like I used to do.

Yesterday, I came close to freaking out and used all of the tools in my arsenal to walk through it.

It all started yesterday morning.

Something told me to stop off at the Subaru dealership on my way out of South Florida. Had some things to take care of and I have been researching and learning everything I could about “Van Life,” living on the road, etc.

I had also been researching on the best ways of turning in my lease and I got a wealth of new information on how things now work with the banks, rules, and now the fact that the pandemic last year caused the automobile industry to run low on chips for vehicles. Not many used Subaru’s out there that are certified, that I felt comfortable with the price, and I felt I could trust.

I ran the gamut of every possible way I could do this with the lease and getting into another vehicle. The van was an option because housing prices are going up too. All kinds of things going on.

I said to myself, “Focus…”

I needed to stay on track with the car first, so when I stopped at the dealership, my head was full of all of this information and in some ways I was ready to do whatever came next and some ways I was still looking at all my options.

I met the most amazing salesperson and finance person on the face of the planet. They both really cared about what was going on in my situation, with my needs, with my finances and were literally bending over backwards to get me out of the lease and into my next vehicle. And no, it did not feel like any other sales or finance person I have ever worked with in my life, and I have worked with many as I have purchased quite a few vehicles.

These two were Earth Angels.

I have owned a Subaru before many, many years ago, so I wasn’t new to that either. What I was new to was how these two amazing human beings took care of me and my situation and went above and beyond what they needed to do.

I left with a 2019, certified, Subaru Outback with a hitch (and without a hitch)! This still puts me in a great position to travel and now I have a vehicle that I know will last me a very long time.

One thing at a time… while going through the process, as I said, I had to pull out all the stops with my toolbox. I knew this was a long-term investment in myself and my life and needed to just walk through the initial shock of doing this. I was not good at that in the past; yesterday I was calmer and more at peace throughout the whole experience.

I did breathe… a lot.

Now I just walk through the next steps, one moment at a time, and continue with this amazing and healing journey on The Ride of My Life!

Thank you for being here with me.
