YOUR BIG NEXT | business growth, leadership development, scaling with purpose, faith and family first entrepreneur

As entrepreneurs, we have the very best of intentions to figure out how to do it all.

From content creation, meeting with the team, checking the tasks off of the to-do list to learning how to use all the new systems and supporting the clients. This doesn’t even take into account the fact that we have a spouse or kids, a home, dinner to cook or laundry to fold, a baseball game to drive to or a parent that might need us. The list never ends. And as a result, the only option seems to be - hurry, rushing from one thing to the next. 

What if I were to tell you that that was me a few years ago. And because of this, I started to look at the few leaders I could find who seemed to do it differently. They had this lightheartedness, a clarity that I just lacked; they were able to actually be present and not rushed. They were even experiencing many moments of whitespace and margin in their days and at the same time, they were epically prolific in their work, and incredibly connected and successful in their homes. 

So, I set out to see what made all the difference. And today I bring that to you!

It’s finally here! 

The long-awaited episode in which we give you the big reveal!

After countless conversations with many of you, learning so much from our clients and our peers, and really just experiencing life ourselves, as entrepreneurial parents who are called to those two vocations and missions of truly crushing it in business, while at the same time raising a happy, successful family, we are now officially opening the doors to an event that is quite literally the first of its kind (and we've looked).

Today’s episode is all about introducing Camp Luminary!

Let’s raise them up right!

What would it feel like to find harmony between your ever demanding work life as you seek to take your business to the next level, and your even more demanding home life as you're looking to raise leaders? 

A lot of entrepreneurs, who also have strong roots in their family, are expending so much energy trying to bridge that gap between these two separate worlds - business and family, when maybe that's not the right way to go about it. You're not a leader in two totally different arenas. By choosing both entrepreneurship and family, you are the leader of what we call a founder family. 

So today's episode is really dedicated to helping you embrace this new identity, that's going to bring you more purpose and profitability into your business and more peace into your home.

No more feeling like you’re split in two - we're changing the way the game is done!

Lately, we've been talking a lot about finding your child's passion and spark to pursue a life of purpose and significance, and it has really been resonating with you guys. You've been asking for more and we want to bring you more. We want to continue this conversation because it's so important. 

So, today’s conversation is all around the idea of helping our kids pursue their passion versus assigning vocation to our kids. It's very on par with what we talked about, and it's building on the conversation from the other day of preserving passion in our kids. Check out Episode 57: Preserving Passion in our Kids https://luminaryleadershipco.com/episode57.

Today's episode might be a kick in the gut and it might ruffle some feathers, but I come in peace.

Today we're talking about how we can really build and cultivate that connection with our kids. It's something that, if I had to guess, is one of the biggest desires on your heart because it is one of the biggest desires on mine too. We start our business with them in mind even if they are not in existence yet, with this vision of having the freedom to be a present parent.

So, let's get down to the core of it. How do we build that connection? No matter what their age is, no matter how many different directions we're going in, no matter how stressful life is or how many different plates we’re spinning, you deserve…they deserve that deep rooted, real connection. 

Also, in today's episode you will find a sneak peek on our up-coming in-person event for our fellow entrepreneurial parents who are raising Luminaries of their own!

How often do we, as adults, lose our passion or lose sight of the things that we were once passionate about?

How can you preserve that passion in your children? One of our key jobs as parents is to preserve that passion and not let the world take it.

Today, I'm gonna tell you a story that highlights this about one of my team members and one of her kids and, hopefully you take this and do it with your own children.

I've been so eager for this episode to drop because I know that this conversation with Mike Zeller is going to be one that stays with you for a lifetime!

Gearing up for this particular conversation, God just kept dropping in my lap these hints that you, my wonderful listeners of the Luminary Leadership Podcast, needed to have these conversations around the idea of shifting away from just pursuing what is easy, comfortable and what feels like it will bring success and tapping into who you're called to be and what you're meant to do, things that will bring you those feelings of fulfillment and joy. 

During his career, Mike studied under industry masters like Tony Robbins and Russell Brunson,  his business has skyrocketed and he's got over 600,000 followers on Instagram. But, none of that even holds a candle to the depth of conversation that we have today around the concept of really discovering the genius within (which is also the name of his book). He has an actual process that he talks about today; a four step process to help you discover your true zone of genius, that category of your work life and your personal life that is going to take you into a state of flow where you feel both productive but also purposeful in what you're doing.

Let’s get to the episode!

At Luminary Leadership, our focus is very heavy on helping you raise leaders as you build your empire and giving you the tools and the resources to do it. The other day, while I was having a meeting with my creative director Caitlyn, we both had a very stark realization that the school system and society are not helping any of us do that. It's not helping us raise leaders. It's not helping us build confidence in our kids.

Caitlyn showed me a picture of her daughter's progress report from grade school and my jaw dropped. It blew me away. I have to share it with you today because it's going to make your jaw drop too when you really think about what the schools are doing to our kids (disclaimer: Not every school, but I'm talking in general)

Today we are highlighting something that sometimes flies under the radar, but it is stripping our kids of possibility, creativity and confidence and it needs to be addressed.
