Starting is often the hardest part—not because we lack the ability, but because we convince ourselves we need all the answers before we begin. The truth? Perfection doesn’t exist, and the path forward only reveals itself through action. It’s in the messy, uncertain, imperfect beginnings that we find clarity, strength, and growth. Every step, no mat…

Sometimes, all it takes is a small change in perspective to transform how we see the world. Riding a Ferris wheel is the perfect metaphor—without traveling far, we’re lifted high enough to see things differently. From above, what once seemed overwhelming or insurmountable feels smaller, and what felt insignificant might suddenly appear full of poss…

In this episode, we dive into the power of trusting the process and finding meaning in the journey. Steve Jobs once said that we can't connect the dots looking forward, only looking back. The challenges and unexpected paths you’ve taken have shaped you into someone stronger than you ever imagined. Life’s hardest moments often bring the greatest gro…

In this episode, we dive into the powerful paradox of growth: to become who we’re meant to be, we often first have to feel small. It's an uncomfortable place, yet it's here that we start to see the walls we’ve built around ourselves. When we understand just how vast life is—like standing before the Grand Canyon or staring up at a stormy sky—it puts…

In this episode, we explore how growth and progress are promises we make to ourselves, not obligations to others, and the empowering truth that as long as we’re alive, defeat is purely psychological. Each morning brings an opportunity to begin anew—not by waiting for something big to happen, but by taking small, consistent steps forward. These acti…

In this episode, I dig into the art of decision-making, especially when it comes to those pivotal, life-altering choices that define who we are. Jeff Bezos once shared that his best decisions have come not from data and analysis but from heart, intuition, and guts. Sure, numbers and logic have their place, but when it comes to the big decisions, it…

Sometimes, the answers we need aren’t out there somewhere; they’re right here, within arm’s reach. In this episode, we’ll dig into the surprising truth that even our biggest obstacles can be tackled with what we already have, right where we are. It’s easy to think that solutions lie in some far-off place, requiring resources or skills we don’t yet …

Today, we’re digging into those moments that feel uncomfortable—the times we feel stuck, question our path, or lose perspective. Here’s the thing: those moments aren’t mistakes or signs that something’s wrong. They’re features, not bugs. They’re a part of stepping into life, and they’re here to challenge us, to ask: What will you make of this? When…

Today’s episode dives into the power of small steps and the value of showing up for yourself every day. Sometimes we want to tackle everything in one big leap, but real progress happens in the small, repeated actions we take. Take something like a cold plunge—it’s not just about enduring the chill. Every time I step into that cold water, I’m remind…

Today’s episode is a reminder that the journey itself builds the strength we’re looking for. You don’t wait until you’re strong to go to the gym—the gym is where strength is built. It’s the same with life; you don’t need to wait until you feel ready or “worthy” to make a difference or find connection. Instead, focus on becoming a capable, valuable …

Hey friends, today’s episode is a reminder about growth and perspective—a reminder that sometimes, to expand into our potential, we first have to feel small. It’s uncomfortable; no one likes that feeling of insignificance. But when we allow ourselves to experience it, we realize just how massive life is, and how many walls we put up around ourselve…

Hey friends, in today’s episode, I’m diving into something a friend asked me: What will your story say? We all have that “dash” between the day we’re born and the day we die—that little mark that holds our life in between. It's easy to brush that off as something we’ll get to later, but when you really stop and think, it’s powerful. That dash is ev…

In this episode, we dive into the idea that growth and progress aren’t something we owe to others; they’re a commitment we make to ourselves. Mornings are the perfect opportunity to start small, taking consistent actions that build momentum and set the tone for the day. We don’t need anything grand to move forward—each tiny step we take creates a "…

In this episode, we explore the empowering idea that we already have everything we need to jump-start our day and create momentum. It’s not about waiting for a breakthrough or a massive change but recognizing that real progress begins with small, consistent actions. By taking even the tiniest steps each morning, we activate the "snowball effect," w…

In this podcast episode, I reflect on a powerful metaphor drawn from the mini-series 1883, where the external healing of a wound represents the things we can control, and the internal healing symbolizes the patience and trust needed for time to do its work.
