What are you so worried about that you wouldn't answer the door and get your package?
My guess is that one of the big dangers when you step out of the house is when you step into your car, that driving is itself quite a dangerous thing to do, perhaps even more so than just walking down the street.
So talk about where things can go wrong there.
Let's talk about travel.
And I think people have heard, you know, try not to look like a tourist, try not to stand out and look like a victim.
But what else about travel that's maybe a little less obvious, things that people might miss?
Wow.
That's amazing that somebody would have reached over the top of the stall and grabbed her purse.
How would they even know it was on the hook?
You know what's a situation where things could go bad really fast and happen to almost anybody who's driving is road rage.
You make a mistake, somebody gets upset, and things escalate really fast.
So one more piece of really practical, strategic advice for people, because you clearly know so much about this.
What's one thing you want to leave people with?
Well, I admire your vigilance and your willingness to share this because what I think happens for so many people, myself included, is because things rarely, if ever, happen, it's so easy to let your guard down.
And I think it's important to hear the things that you're saying so people will ratchet up their vigilance level because it doesn't happen until it happens.
And when it happens...
You need to know what to do.
