91: IT'S ON YOU


Listen Later

Hey Rehabbers:

In this episode, we’re cutting straight to the core of what it means to take control of your life, regardless of who’s in office or what’s happening in the world. At the end of the day, real change doesn’t come from the outside—it starts with you. We’re talking about what it means to stay focused, grounded, and in control, even when things around you feel uncertain or out of your hands.

I’m sharing five powerful steps to get out of feelings and into the facts, with a focus on owning your reactions, staying connected to your purpose, setting high standards, and taking consistent action. If you’re ready to stop letting outside circumstances dictate your life and start stepping into your full power, this episode is for you.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Check Your Reactions:
  2. Don’t let emotions steer your decisions. Real power comes from owning your reactions and responding from a place of purpose, not just feelings.
  3. Stay Grounded in Your ‘Why’:
  4. Your purpose is what guides you when things feel chaotic. Remembering why you do what you do will keep you moving forward, regardless of the distractions.
  5. Set Unshakable Standards:
  6. Your standards shouldn’t shift with circumstances. Keep them high, hold yourself accountable, and don’t compromise based on what’s going on outside of you.
  7. Focus on What You Control:
  8. There’s freedom in releasing what’s beyond your control and putting your energy into the actions and choices that are fully yours. This is where real change happens.
  9. Be the Change You’re Waiting For:
  10. Don’t sit around hoping for change to come to you. Be the one who takes action, makes an impact, and creates the life you want, no matter who’s in office.
  11. Memorable Quotes:

    • "Your life’s direction? That’s on you. Don’t let any outcome take you off your purpose."
    • "Change doesn’t start from the outside; it starts from within. Stop waiting, start moving."
    • "If you want it, be it. Focus on what you can control, and make it happen."
    • Call to Action:
