480: My Life Was Running Me Until I Took This Step

Share this:

In this solo Expansion Era episode, I’m opening up about a turning point in my journey: when I realized my life was running me, not the other way around. I share the step I took to shift that dynamic and the five powerful lessons that continue to guide me today. From building discipline like a muscle, to falling in love with the process, to tracking effort over outcomes, these lessons are helping me reclaim balance, confidence, and control. I’m still in the process myself, but I know these insights can help you start running your life, too.

In this episode I share:

  • Why focusing on the muscle you’re building matters more than the result
  • How to fall in love with the process and romanticize the mundane
  • The importance of tracking the process, not just the outcomes
  • How to recognize and adjust for your shortcomings
  • Why letting go of rigid expectations opens the door to more wins

Highlights include:

  • 00:00 Intro
  • 02:26 Lesson 1: Focus on the muscle, not the results
  • 07:12 Lesson 2: Fall in love with the process
  • 11:24 Lesson 3: Track the process, not the result
  • 16:05 Lesson 4: Adjust for your shortcomings
  • 21:16 Lesson 5: Let go of expectations & celebrate small wins
  • 25:32 Closing thoughts + invitation to my live class
