What’s your big dream? You know that one, the wild, improbable goal that you find yourself daydreaming about. Looking back to 10 years ago, I am currently living what I was dreaming about then: traveling the world and escaping winters forevermore. 

In today’s episode, I’m talking about why having dreams for your future is vitally important to feeling younger while growing older. I dive into why many of our dreams remain unfulfilled, how to overcome the obstacles that are in our way to achieving what we want out of life, and what dreaming has to do with longevity. 

So many of us are held back by limiting beliefs, fears, and cultural norms. In order to live a vibrant life, we really have to find what is true internally for us, and not just follow what was modeled to us by the people that raised us. The more I've been exposed to different ways of living, the less I feel attached to my humble midwest upbringing. 

My guiding principle is that everything I do today and in the near future determines how I will feel and what I will be experiencing in a decade. What are you doing to align with the future that you’re dreaming of? Listen in to learn how you can pursue your dreams and be engaged with the aging process.
