Today, we confront the myth of perpetual commitment.
In a world where perseverance is celebrated and quitting is often equated with failure, we're conditioned to think that once we set a goal, it's a binding contract we simply must honor. Our discussion today doesn't condone walking away from commitments that truly matter to us, but rather, it advocates for a shift in perspective on how we perceive our goals and responsibilities.
We'll delve into the liberating concept of releasing obligations that no longer serve us - those tasks or goals that drain our joy and erode our well-being, we'll also explore practical strategies to navigate such scenarios gracefully.

Today I invite you to take a deeper look at an emotion that often governs our lives - fear. Fear most often presents itself in the uncharted territories in our lives, and is an unavoidable challenge in life. Yet it’s confronting this emotion and pushing through it that brings about growth and liberation. Leaning into fear and running towards it can be difficult to do, but our mission is not to suppress fear but to overcome it.
I invite you to take some time to think about how fear is governing areas of your life and how you can lean into it, conquer it, and come out on top with more knowledge and confidence going into the future.

Today I’m talking about why I try my best not to grip things too tightly. This can apply in business, marriage, relationships with your kids, or any other area of your life really. When we grip too tightly we get fatigued and cause ourselves to be spread to thin as a result of the control we are trying to gain, so just be careful when you notice yourself gripping something too tightly.

Today I want to talk about how not everyone can handle freedom. Everybody wants the luxuries of success, but most people don’t want to do what it takes to get there. Most people want someone else to lead and to take the fall if something goes wrong, so I want to challenge you to ask yourself which areas of your life are being held back because you think you need a King.

During this day and age, things are moving really fast, and that means the decisions we make need to come faster. Many times we won’t feel like we can make the best decision, because we don’t have all information, and that’s probably true. However we still need to make the best decision we can with the information that we do have. Any decision is better than no decision. So I implore you, evaluate the information you do have, make a decision, and make it work!

Today we are talking about the history of the US National median rent versus median income. We take a look at a chart and discuss the disparity between the growth of rent prices in our country and the growth of wages in our country since 1985. The chart reinforces my opinion that it’s STILL a good a time as ever to be investing in real estate. The question I pose to you is: Will you build an empire, or will you build a bunker?

Today I’m sharing some recent revelations I’ve made during this challenging season I’m in, mainly centering around business being a team sport. It’s so easy to want to do everything yourself and think that others are always the issue, but in reality the only thing that actually matters at the end of the day is humans. The real issue is systems, processes, leadership, etc. We have to make sure we are always taking accountability for the part we may play in issues that arise on our lives.

Welcome back to the Investing for Freedom Podcast. Today I wanted to talk to you all about dreams. Almost everything you see around you in this world has been dreamt up by someone, and brought to reality through action and human collaboration. Everything starts in the mind, so until we can start dreaming again, there can be no growth. So I want to ask, what dreams have you let die that you need to bring back? What areas of your life are you going to take the leap and stop living in fear? Get out there and get moving!

In today’s episode I am covering challenges, and the massive growth we can take from them. I also discuss getting into rooms surrounded by higher performing and smarter people, allowing us to learn from their mistakes rather than learning the hard way, the concept of 'complexity ceilings' – those invisible barriers that seem to hold us back just when we think we’re about to break through, keeping your vision clear and not getting too off track with excitement, and more!
I would love to hear from YOU, reach out to me at 480-531-7510, on Instagram or anywhere else you follow me and let me know what some of your complexity ceilings you’re encountering and really stuck at!
