đź’­ What Would Walt Do? Designing a Life of Wonder and Intention

Welcome to Watercooler Wednesday, where we talk about the ideas worth pausing for…especially the ones that help us realign with what truly matters.

Today, we’re drawing inspiration from a man who built an empire on imagination, innovation, and intention:

Walt Disney.

We ask this not as a thought experiment, but as a life-check:

What would Walt do… with your life?


🧠 Walt’s Superpower Wasn’t Animation. It Was Vision.

Walt Disney didn’t just sketch characters.
He dreamed up entire worlds that didn’t exist…then had the courage to make them real.

But what’s often forgotten is this:
He didn’t wait for someone else to greenlight his ideas.

He designed what he wanted to see in the world.

He asked:

  • What would this experience feel like?
  • How can we make people feel transported?
  • What would delight people, surprise them, move them?

Now, imagine if you applied those same questions… to your life.


🌟 Designing a Life of Wonder

Your life is not a checklist.
It’s a creative project.

When you pause to design your day-to-day with intention—like Walt did with every park, attraction, and even queue—you begin to:

  • Infuse delight into your ordinary
  • Replace autopilot with awe
  • Swap stress for storytelling

You start to think in terms of:

“How do I want this to feel?”
Not just, “What do I need to do?”

That mindset shift? That’s when life starts to feel like yours again.


🏰 What If Walt Designed Your Life?

Would he paint beige walls and sit in traffic every day?
Would he put your dreams on the “someday shelf”?
Would he ignore the sparkle in your eyes when you talk about what you really want?

Of course not.

He’d:

  • Build a neighborhood with walking trails and twinkle lights
  • Make your mornings feel like an experience
  • Schedule time for laughter, creativity, and connection
  • Choose to live in a place that inspired him daily

And he wouldn’t apologize for wanting beauty, fun, and magic.

Neither should you.


đź’¬ What Clients Say When They Finally Choose Wonder

“We didn’t move to escape…we moved to experience.” – Jessie W.

“I used to see Disney as fantasy. Now I see it as a reminder that life can feel like that, too.” – Brett M.

“This move wasn’t just about location. It was about realigning with who we are.” – Mira & Evan L.


You don’t need to build a theme park.
You just need to build a life that feels like you dreamed it.

The next decision you make could be the start of something remarkable.

So go ahead…ask yourself what Walt would do.

Then do it.
