I'll admit it: The idea of starting a nonprofit lingered in my dreams, flirting with the edge of possibility, yet I kept it at bay, thinking it was a mountain too steep for my already hectic life. 

That is, until Dr. Travis Zigler came into the picture, and suddenly, the gears began to turn in ways I hadn't anticipated. 

Take a seat and come along on a journey with me, Stacey Lauren, as I unfold the raw, personal battle against the mental barriers that threaten to halt our most cherished ambitions. 

Throughout this episode, we'll explore the delicate dance of pursuing passions, the crucial moments of stepping back to gain perspective, and the profound epiphanies that can ignite a fire within us, propelling us onward.

This week, my conversation with Travis not only shines a light on the path to creating a nonprofit but also challenges me to confront the 'mental baggage' I've been toting around. As we meander through the winding thoughts that led to the conception of the Do the Thing Foundation, you'll witness a story of transformation—from personal passion to purposeful action and the ways in which strategic giving can exponentially increase our impact on the world. 

We'll discuss how aligning our actions with our intentions can fuel not only our own growth but also lend support to vital causes like mental health, entrepreneurship, and children in recovery. Tune in for an episode that might just stir your soul and perhaps inspire you to take that leap towards your own dreams.
