Welcome to the Made for Great Podcast
This is Episode 000 – Introduction to the Show
My name is Annena G., I am your host and it is my pleasure to share with you what this show is about.
I once heard someone say – “When you say the words I AM the word that follows chases it. It seeks to be IT and fulfill IT.
We live our lives according to how we see ourselves. Our words align with our self-image. When you lead a statement with the words “I AM” you are affirming what you believe to be true about yourself.
When you say things like I AM Powerful, I AM Kind and I AM Successful you are declaring your truth.
The name of this show, “Made for Great” is a short way of saying “I am made for great things.”
It is a message to you and to anyone who may struggle with identity that your potential is unlimited and you can do whatever you put your mind to. It is not a vanity statement sparked from ambition but a humbling commitment to honor the power within you.
When I was a senior in high school and trying to figure out my next step after graduation, I was completely clueless about my future. I only knew that I wanted to be independent and live on my own terms but I did not know who I was and did not know what would fill me.
So, I decided to follow the path of the “successful people” that I knew.
It was a beginning of my experience of “living the wrong way” where I created a pattern of making career and life changing decisions for the wrong reasons, like doing something just for the money. It was also where I began my 20+ year search for my place in this world because though I had some success, I never achieved contentment.
I didn’t understand how my identity impacted my truth. Just as a car that is out of alignment will pull to one side instead of driving straight forward, I was out of alignment with my gifts and purpose because I was looking outside of myself instead of in my heart where the answer was all along. I made the wrong decisions because of following the advice of others instead of following my passions.
On this show we hope to help you make the adjustments that you need so you can move forward in the right direction.
Every week we will give you a small dose of encouragement as you uncover your identity and go after your dreams because you were made for great things, so find your power and walk in your truth.
Well, that is it for the show.
