I’m going to tell you a story of peak youthful abandon, the kind that provokes a huge lack of caution that you can only really achieve before you hit, say, 30 years old. After that, severe adulting comes into play with its bills, responsibility, children, career, mortgage… blah blah.
The wonderful (and yes, I know, at times reckless) thing about the brain of our youth is it doesn’t always automatically make a list of all the things that could go wrong with a decision. Instead, it tends to focus on all the things that could go right – which can trigger some crazy adventures that you’d otherwise never experience. As adults it can be hard to recall the last time we had a true “adventure”, where everything wasn’t completely in our control.
Me and the girls had been on a night out in Central London. I was the designated driver that night. We left the club at 2am and I drove us to McDonald’s in Leicester Square. Back then, if you were raving in town you always popped by Maccy D’s for a munch, a raving debrief, and a bit more flirting with boys if you had the energy.
He was with a group of other guys in their identical American uniform, very typical of the era: low-slung baggy jeans, Timberland boots, and durags. He told me they were backing dancers and had just finished filming Top of the Pops with Destiny’s Child – they’d popped in Maccy D’s on their way on their way back to their hotel.
Naturally, we exchanged numbers, with promises that he’d call and get me on the guest list for the concert the following night. And guess what? He did. Yes, I was as shocked as you. The one snag was that he could only put one name at stage door, so I couldn’t bring a friend. Did that deter me? Well, what do you think?

As a “special guest” I couldn’t scream my lungs out (I had to be chill). But it meant I could properly take in the magic of seeing these women, but especially Beyoncé, perform. It was almost ethereal: the power of her voice, her stature, the movement of her body and her command of thousands of fans, is something to behold. And yes, I fell in love. It was a moment I’ll never forget.
Sometimes I do feel as though we need those moments as adults where we ignore those nagging feelings of fear, over-caution and worry and just… let go. Because who knows where the path could take us?
