118: Most People Don’t Actually Go After the Life They Want


Listen Later

This episode wasn’t planned but it kept me up last night, and I knew I needed to sit down and record it today. It felt like the universe was telling me you needed to hear this.

Here’s the truth: most people don’t actually go after the life they want. They talk about it. They plan for it. They get close, and then fear sneaks in and convinces them to pull back, to play it safe, to wait for “someday.”

In this episode, I’m breaking down why that happens, the 4 common scenarios I see people get stuck in, and what separates the few who do go after it. We’ll talk about:

  • Why successful people aren’t “lucky”, they just swing when others don’t
  • The role of big swings in creating leaps in life and business
  • How to build your nervous system and risk tolerance so fear doesn’t stop you
  • What to do when you get pushback (yes, even from a spouse or partner)
  • Why you don’t need permission or support to chase the life you really want

This one’s raw, unscripted, and straight from my heart. If you’ve been sitting on the sidelines, waiting for the right time to take your swing, this is your nudge.
