Living in a world where we are constantly bombarded by the messaging around us, we have to learn to separate what we actually want with what we are told we "should want." We are conditioned from a young age to live life in a very specific way. BUT, what if that template doesn't work for you? This podcast is my outlet to tell those of you out there who want to make change, that it can be done, but not without struggle, effort, and adversity. If you decide to put in the work, I can promise you that a life of joy, fulfillment, and happiness is waiting for you on the other side. 

You've heard it too many times to count... "Lead by example." A statement often thrown around in society today, but rarely ever executed. I believe that leading from the front and leading by example go hand and hand with taking ownership of your life. Whether you believe it or not, your actions are affecting someone, whether that be positive or negative. Every single day you are leaving both small and large impressions on every single person you interact with. This gives us all a platform to LEAD. Are you someone who leads with words or with action? Only you know the answer to that. 

In this episode, I offer a new perspective surrounding goal-setting. We all have goals, sometimes multiple at once that we are looking to achieve. Now take a step back for a second and reflect. Are you willing to sacrifice and endure the process in order to reach that goal or goals? Do you REALLY love the process or are you just obsessed with the outcome? These are all different questions we explore in this episode. After listening, you should have a very clear idea which goals of yours are aligned with who you are and which aren't. 

What are you willing to struggle for?

On episode 3, I had my first guest appearance from my sister, friend, and mentor Meg Turnure. We dive into details about taking the leap into the next phase of your life, whatever that may be. Both Meg and myself took a leap from our corporate careers to pursue our passions for health, wellness, and fitness full time. In this episode, we talk more in-depth about the importance of leaning into adversity, embracing discomfort, and taking risk. 

As discussed in the first episode, I wanted to take the opportunity to speak about my story in-depth and give some examples of my own life experiences and how they apply to overcoming adversity. In episode 2, I deep dive into the idea of leaning into your own adversity in your own life. Our natural human tendency is to stay in a state of comfort. It isn't in our nature to deviate and do something that is going to make us uncomfortable or challenge us. What we do not realize in the moment, is that these specific experiences are the ones that teach us life's most crucial lessons. Don't spend all of your time living someone else's narrative. Lean into adversity and write your own story.
