Listen to my very first non-scripted episode where I just speak from the heart on a matter that drives my behavior and outlook on life. I introduced the ‘Dream Big’ mantra to my kiddos after being inspired by the song created by Ryan Shupe and the RubberBand. (See the video here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KwEuNapzt0 ). I share how I have used this message to help my kids achieve more than they could have ever conceived, as well as how my sister-in-law models this motto on a daily basis. You’ll even hear about the ‘Red Plate’ phenomenon in my household. If you have desires in your heart that you have not unlocked or need the motivation to make them a reality, then tune in to this episode!
