: True success is a journey of self-discovery and authenticity. The late, great, and fabulous Maya Angelou said it best: '𝘚𝘶𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧, 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘰, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘰 𝘪𝘵.'

The richest form of success comes from embracing who you truly are, finding passion in your pursuits, and taking pride in your approach to life.

It’s not just about financial gains or physical prowess—it's about feeling aligned with your true self, living intentionally, and making choices that bring you genuine joy and fulfillment.

Remember, every step you take towards authentic living is a leap towards your truest form of success. The journey isn't just for the milestones but for the moments of self-awareness and clarity that truly count. Whether it's choosing a mindful workout over a trendy fitness fad, opting for a financially savvy lifestyle over impulsive and expensive pleasures, or simply taking time to connect with your inner self through journaling and meditation, every choice is a building block of your unique success story.

Cheers to living a life that's not just successful by standard measures, but one that's rich in self-fulfillment, self-love, and genuine happiness.

Happy February! Since it's the second month of 2024 and statistics indicate that 80% of people fail to keep up with their New Year's resolutions by February, let's talk about change and why it's so hard (and scary!). I'm pretty sure we can all agree that change is like climbing a mountain. For me, change is "Type 2 Fun" — it's miserable while it’s happening, but fun in retrospect. It usually begins with the best intentions, and then things get carried away.

— Let's talk about it...

In today's , 'Why Change is So Hard', I explore why embracing change feels like facing a colossal wall. But here's a twist — that wall is actually a ladder to a better you (corny, but true!).

I write about the nitty-gritty of comfort zones, those cozy but limiting spaces that hold us back. Picture it: your couch, your routine, the known paths. Familiar, yes, but also a bit like invisible chains. Then, there's the fear factor, that little voice whispering, 'What if you fail?' It's scary, but those fears are just signposts, showing us where growth happens.

Change also means shifting your identity, and that can feel like losing a part of yourself. But in reality, it's not a loss, it's an evolution, a shedding of old skin for something even better. And let's not forget the effort equation. Yes, change is hard work. It's easier to scroll through social media than to work on that business plan or hit the gym. But remember, every small step counts.

Our brains love the path of least resistance, but easy doesn't always mean right. Learning new things, changing behaviors, it all takes mental energy. But think of it like training a muscle – the more you work it, the stronger it becomes. Embrace the discomfort because if you're comfortable, you're not growing. Growth lives in discomfort.

Visualization and belief play a huge part. Visualize your end goal. Make it vivid, make it real. It's not daydreaming; it's like setting your GPS. You need to know where you're headed and how to get there.

And let's not forget the power of community and support. Change is so much easier when you have people cheering you on (and, trust me, I'm here rooting for your a**!).

Want to learn how to embrace discomfort and make those small, consistent steps towards your goals? Let's journey through this together. Head over to my blog for the full read!

Got your coffee? Good! Ready for the week? Perfect! Let's go....

For this week’s snippet, we're going all the way back to episode 3, where I sat down with the homie, Jon Lopez from Nine Doors Down, LLC. His story? Life threw him a curveball when he got laid off from a job he was loyal to, but you know what? It was the exact push he needed to leap into the world of entrepreneurship.

I love Jon's take on life. He believes that what we often see as life's setbacks are actually hidden opportunities.

Perspective creates success — and in this episode we talk about viewing failure as the fuel for growth because all of life's f*ckery and bumps in the road end up being our best teachers!

If you're itching to hear more about Jon's adventures and his take on risk-taking, check out episode 3 on our pod channel!

When was the last time you took a leap, even when it felt scary af? Share it in the comments!

: Steve Jobs once said, 'Your time is limited, don’t waste it living someone else’s life.'

The essence of a truly fulfilling life lies in embracing your very own unique path. Your journey is yours alone — not a reflection of someone else's expectations or the societal norms that often cloud our authentic selves.

Being true to who you are is not just about self-expression; it's about making conscious choices that resonate with your deepest values. It's about finding strength in your authenticity and courage in your individuality. When we live lives aligned with our true selves, every step becomes more meaningful, and every decision more empowering.

Authenticity isn't just a concept, but a practice. It's in the small daily decisions where we choose our own well-being over external approval. It's in the moments we honor our true feelings and thoughts, regardless of the trends or the noise around us.

So, this is your friendly Friday reminder to take a moment today to ask yourself: Are you living your truth, or walking in the shadows of others? Remember, the light of fulfillment shines brightest when it's your very own. Let's cherish our individual journeys and encourage each other to live an authentic life.

Can you believe January is almost over? This is about the time where 80% of New Year's resolutioners start giving up and eventually fail by the time Valentine's chocolates hit the shelves. But why? 😑

— Let's talk about it...

How many of you created a resolution simply because your social media feeds were flooded with everyone and their mom promising to become vegan, run marathons, or get a six-pack?

And then there's the 'I never make resolutions' squad. You know, the ones who think they've cleverly hacked the system.

Is it just me, or is that the ultimate cop-out? The mentality of “Can’t fail if I don’t play.”

Now, here’s a thought: Could it be that both camps are missing the point?

Here's what I've personally discovered about getting this resolution sh*t right: it's not about setting sky-high goals without a plan. It's all about understanding the journey and who you have to become to actually achieve those goals ( ).

Got 5 minutes to read a blog post? (Yes, you do! Don't lie to yourself.)

In my , I talk about transcending the "January Mindset," seeing it as more than just a period of personal goal-setting and contributing to the multi-billion dollar industry surge (you know, the industries that sell us quick fixes for the deeper desires we're all too afraid to address), reasons why most people fail (like not understanding the habit loop), and how to actually transform goals into lifelong commitments.

So, before you invest in another tool or program, pause and ask yourself: Am I clear on my goals? Am I willing to become the person who is not just a goal-setter, but a goal-achiever?
