Key Elements:

• Discuss the twelve steps the Hero must go through to reach the end goal.
• Explore how meaningful each step is, and how they contribute the meaning to our adventure.
• Look at how you can assess perhaps paths you detoured from in the past, and where you might be today.

whether you are going

to be able to say a hearty

yes to your adventure."

Welcome to episode 61 where we talk about how to stop living life for everyone else, and start living your own.

In this episode we get into just how easy it is to let go, stuff, deny or subvert who we really are, what we always wanted to go after, and focus instead on what others need, and what others need us to be. It can happen quickly but most usually slowly over time, and before you know it years have gone by.

Key Elements:

• Discuss the early setup in your childhood that makes it easier to lose yourself in relationships.
• Explore some of the signals you might not be living the life that you were meant to.
• Focus on ways to get back to you!

Don't you dare put your life in a box!

Don't you dare decide to settle for mediocrity!

Don't you dare give up on your dreams!

Don't you dare give up on your life!"

-Dani Johnson
