In a world of non-stop hustle, we often find ourselves maxed out in day to day life. All of the little things we say ‘YES’ to without realizing how it’s killing us inside. Most of us are guilty of fulfilling the needs of others while disregarding what fills us up… what fuels our spirit and what quenches our thirst for life.

Like in an airplane, you must first put the mask on yourself before your loved ones. What good are you to others if you’re failing to devote time for personal growth?

Coach Chris sits down with Mind Love podcast host Melissa Monte to share an insightful conversation about the POWER and FREEDOM in saying the word ‘No,’ being bolder and how life changing that can be.

If you’re causing yourself pain by suppressing what you want most just to please the needs of others and make their feelings more important than your own, get ready to Fill Your Cup and begin acting on your own ambitions and dreams!

 

"It's our relationship with our self and how many of us sit there and spend time before we start doing a lot of work on ourselves to sit there and say 'what really lights me up, what are my triggers, what are the things I hate doing'..."

and

"It's really hard to have motivation to do anything if you don't know why you're doing and that includes those little intricacies within any mission."

-Melissa Monte
