In this episode of the Conscious Investor Podcast, I dive deep into the emotional cycle of change and how we can push through the challenging moments—especially when we hit that "trough of despair." I share some personal insights on my own journey of feeling like I wasn’t a "high performer" and how I overcame that by realizing I’m not in competition with anyone else. Each of us is uniquely created with our own DNA, and that means no one else can be you. Whether you’re pursuing real estate, personal development, or any other path, it’s time to embrace your uniqueness and stop comparing yourself to others.

I also talk about moving into what I call "informed optimism," a shift that happens after we push through the tough times and gain confidence in our abilities. It’s not about being better than someone else; it’s about becoming the best version of yourself. Conscious Investor, you don’t have to beat anyone else—just take those steps forward, trust your journey, and find joy in the process of becoming who you were created to be.
