"Life got in the way" is something I hear ALL the time from pilots. It's such an easy thing to let happen, and can keep us from pursuing our dreams for months, years, or even decades. Recently becoming a father, I experienced first hand what it's like for your bandwidth to be challenged, making it more difficult to fly regularly. I've been working on implementing some solutions to that, and since it's something I hear about so often, I wanted to share it publicly in case it can help anyone else.
As mentioned in the video, get the 23 resources I wish I had at the start of my aviation journey in an easy-to-reference PDF.
