Ep. 130: The Dreams We Leave Behind

What if you haven’t outgrown your dreams—just drifted away from them? In this episode, we explore what happens when we stop dreaming. As we grow older, it’s easy to trade bold aspirations for practical realities. Maybe someone told you your dream was unrealistic. Maybe life just got busy. But here’s the truth: 92% of people never pursue their dreams—and the most common regret at the end of life is not having had the courage to live true to themselves.

We dive into what it means to reconnect with the desires that still matter to you. I share the inspiring story of Julia Child, who didn’t find her passion for French cuisine until 37, and didn’t become a household name until her 50s.

Her journey proves that it’s never too late to begin again. I also share my own transformation—from an insurance office to becoming an author and speaker—and the practical tools that helped me get unstuck, including the "day in the life" visualization and Wheel of Life assessment. Because clarity isn’t enough—you need belief and action.

Like a GPS, you don’t need to see the whole route, just the next turn. What if it could actually work out? What if you’re not too late? What if everything you need is already within you? Let’s explore that together.
