We all have a dream we keep tucked away — the one that feels too big, too late, or too terrifying to pursue. Shelley Dunstone had one of those dreams. After years of practicing law in Australia, she decided she wanted to sing Brazilian music. Not just perform it — she wanted to sing in Portuguese, with Brazilian musicians, in Brazil. And eventually, she did.
In this conversation, Shelley talks about what it means to honor a dream even when you’re afraid of it, the friends who nudged her forward, and what it felt like to finally step on stage after years of silence.
If you have a dream you’ve been putting off, this one’s for you.
