Ready to step out on my own. Fully Independent.

This is what being in a season of growth and being tested looks like…
_

The bible says, "Ask and it will be given, seek and you will find, knock and it will be opened" and I believe it, because I know this to be true in so many other instances of my life.
__

But damn, it can be scary when you ask, and it shows up BIGGER, faster, and a little different than how you imagined....
___

Don't let the details of how you saw it in your mind, rob you of your moment to answer the call and shine.
___

No choice but to stay steadfast, and to continue to move forward.

I recently sat down and interviewed Rachel Smith and Matt Joblon, two of the masterminds behind the @claytonmembersclub , the first inclusive members only club that recently opened up in Denver, CO. In our conversation we discuss how the Clayton Members Club is building a culture that was founded upon Opportunity, Equity, and Inclusion.

I am excited to announce that I will be speaking at the 2021 Conspiracy of Goodness Summit, on October 10th!
___

The Summit, which is hosted by my friends at the positive media outlet @everwideningcircles , will be tackling a problem that I know many of us are struggling with right now: living with purpose.
____

In an afternoon of talks, interactive sessions, and live Q&A you will get the tools and insights you need to develop your roadmap to living with purpose and a community to support your journey.

From recent grads, to 9-5ers, to those reaching the end of their careers, people are searching for a meaningful next step in life: they want to live with purpose.
___

Does this thought--this realization of wanting to live a life with purpose--resonate with you?

If so, this afternoon will be a great start on your path to identifying that purpose and taking the first steps towards a life of fulfillment, clarity, and meaning.

Do you trust the vision for your life? ____ I did

Do you trust the vision for your life?
____

I didn't always... In the beginning, it felt muddy, inconsistent, and fleeting.

Overtime, I realized where I was going wrong.

I was so caught up listening to everything and everyone around me, that my inner voice naturally took a back seat to all of the outside influence.

Sure enough, confusion, frustration, and inaction would creep in, and my momentum would be crushed.
___

We never know exactly how the vision is going to unfold, and I would argue that we don't want all of those details.

But that's why it's critical to keep a close ear to your inner voice. The inner voice, especially when it's tuned in to what you want to create, will be the greatest source of energy to propel you towards your vision.
___

When the vision feels too large, the inner voice will break down the next step required to keep you moving.

Is it always spot on? Mine hasn't always been, but I've learned there's real value in progress over perfection.

Relying on the inner voice as a source of strength, provides you an opportunity to build more confidence in your ability to trust yourself, especially as you listen more, and it provides the answers that were once missing.
____

As my friend Erin Person said recently, "keep listening to the voice inside of you and living in your purpose and passion".

What's my favorite beverage to relax with after a

What's my favorite beverage to relax with after a long day of back to back sales calls, podcast interviews, and team meetings you may wonder? I'll give ya one 3 word hint, and it doesn't involve hitting the bottle either .... @gameboxwine

I recently discovered @gameboxwine, and let me tell y'all... the wine has been a game changer, quite literally! First off, it tastes amazingly fresh every time! They offer a Pinot Grigio, a Chardonnay, a Cab, and my personal favorite the Red Blend which sips smoothly, and finishes with a yummy fruit forward note. I especially love it chilled.

Now I have to be honest, I don't usually go for boxed wine, but this time was different because the packaging is what initially hooked me... not only is it more eco-friendly compared to the alternative, but each box comes with fun games, mysterious riddles and puzzles. Think cards against humanity, meets sudoku, meets crossword puzzles. Simply perfect, if you're looking to unplug from your screen.

Most importantly, it's always fresh when I come back, and it's the bag that just keeps on giving . Check out @gameboxwine to grab a box somewhere near you!

You have to feed what you want to live, and starve

You have to feed what you want to live, and starve what you want to die.
____

How many of you are building towards your dream? How many of you feel like a part of you is slowly dying?

Maybe your interests are changing, perhaps friendship circles are shrinking, or maybe your commission checks are drying out as you put more energy towards the new dream.
____

�I've experienced a lot of these feelings this year, and I call these fringe moments.

�So what is a fringe moment?

�Well, they occur when you've put so much energy and intention into a new direction, that you begin to naturally outgrow your current environment. You find yourself on the edge or the fringe of growing into a new environment.�� One that is in more alignment with the person you're aspiring to become.

�The tricky thing with fringe moments is you don't always realize how much growth you've experienced that has propelled you to the fringe, that has prepared you for a successful leap into your new environment where you will thrive.
____

�As a result of this, the leap can feel further away than it actually is.

It may feel like there's more to lose than there is to gain, and it can be very tempting to retreat backwards from the fringe, and to seek comfort in the known and the familiar.
___

Understand that your life can change in a moment, and it's these moments where I've found peace in continuing towards the fringe by keeping one fact in mind.

�You have to feed what you want to live, and starve what you want to die.
____

�So which version of yourself are you gonna feed?
