MARCY D'ETTORRE - Live The List

Hey there — I’m Marcy.

I’m a northern Ontario girl with mud on my boots, stardust in my planner, and a habit of turning “one day” into “how about now?”

Bucket & Go wasn’t born in a boardroom with a coffee in hand. It was born somewhere between palliative care night shifts, roadside pit stops, and kitchen table travel plans that started with, “What if we just said screw it and went?”

After 26 years in health care — most of them spent walking alongside people in their final days — I learned the kind of things no textbook or TED Talk can teach you.

Like how time is both a thief and a gift.

How regrets feel heavier than backpacks.

And how nobody ever says they wish they’d scrolled more.

That’s why Bucket & Go isn’t about chasing more-it’s about choosing what actually matters, while you still can.

My husband and I? We’re those people. We sold everything. Bought a cabin in the woods. Planted trees. Made fires. Laughed a lot. Cried sometimes. Wandered dirt roads with a camera in one hand and a half-baked dream in the other.

People tell us all the time:

“I live through your adventures.”

And while I totally get the sentiment — it always hits me the same way: You don’t have to live through me. You can live like you mean it, too.
