Dakota Riddell

Growing up, you were always the kid with anxiety and perfectionism. Everything always had to be organized, in its place and perfect. You didn’t have a lot of friends. In fact, you typically avoided other kids because they were all loud, messy and prone to messing up your perfectly alphabetized bookshelf. . Nothing changed in high school. You rarely dated, not interested in the weird antics of typical high school kids. Sure, you went to the sports games and social events, but you were never the one to let loose and look like a fool. . And then college rolled around. Your roommate was a nightmare. Your professors? Frustrating. Trying to stay calm and structured felt like a full time job. You met a few people you thought were like you, and ended up down a rabbit hole of all things bad choices. The final straw was the night your parents got a call that you were hallucinating in the quad at 3AM. . They withdrew you from your university immediately. They knew you needed a change. Unfortunately, their jobs left them little chance to be there for you. So, your mom called up her lifelong friend and asked her for help. . Which is how you ended up here. At the Riddell Ranch in Texas, smack in the middle of nowhere. Learning how to let go and just enjoy life. . With the help of Wyatt and Angie Riddell and their eight children, can you learn to just enjoy the chaos life has to offer? . . .
