#25 Live The Life You Want

Share

Recorded live on 1150KKNW with special guest Jori Saeger. We are all bombarded with well-meaning advice every day. Eat this. Live here. Go after this job. Buy this. What happens when you want to follow your intuition and chart a new path? Today, Jori and I talk about how to navigate the advice and ultimately live the life YOU want.

Today’s Guest

Today’s guest is the host of the podcast ‘Don’t Tell Me What To Do’, where she dives into pivoting from the advice others give you and charting a new path for yourself. I am thrilled to have Jori Saeger as my guest on Episode #25, where we talk about the messy middle and finding your true passions.

Key takeaways from this episode:

  • Are there things that need to be said, and are you the one who needs to say it? What do you have to tell the world?
  • Surround yourself with expanders. Look for people who are reaching those goals and where you can see yourself in what they are doing.
  • Curiosity and trying different things help you better understand yourself. You have to experiment to learn new things.
  • Set some reasonable goals for what success looks like, and remember to celebrate your goals.
  • It’s ok to be in the ‘messy middle’ and not have all the answers.
  • Always follow your intuition when it comes to your inner-passion. You know what is right for you.
  • You make change happen, or change happens to you.
  • Just because you want to do something different or creative doesn’t mean you shouldn’t make money. These things are valuable.
  • Do things that light you up.
