CREATE GOLD OUT OF DIRT.

It’s the end of another year.

You have to take time to reflect.

Celebrate your wins. Embrace your losses.

If you don’t, you’ll miss out on an amazing opportunity. You have the power to mold your ideas into reality every single moment of your life.


Growing up, I never wanted to lose. But it wasn’t until I learned to reframe the loss as a lesson that I was able to really get to the next level.


You alone are responsible for your life. 

On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk with you about my wins and losses from the last year.

I share how, this year, I chose to invest in myself. I partnered with people of the highest level to help my social media, my voice, my nutrition and more. The results were incredible.

I also talk about struggling with saying “no” in the past year and how I failed to be upfront in my partnerships and relationships.

Everything I’ve done has lead me here. And I couldn’t have done it without you.

My Biggest Wins and Losses of the Year

WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO IMPRESS?

We are constantly trying to be what we’re not.

We’re trying to look like someone else, perform like someone else, or spend our time in ways that make other people happy.

This is an exhausting way to live.

Like Einstein says, “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” 

You are the most powerful when you’re tapped into what makes you unique.

On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I’m sharing a Summit of Greatness presentation from a former monk and master storyteller: Jay Shetty.

Jay Shetty is an award-winning host, storyteller and viral content creator. Since launching his video channel in 2016, Jay’s viral wisdom videos have garnered over 1 billion views and gained over 3 million followers globally. 

He explains the three lies that people tell us and why it’s much more important to listen to your opinions than anyone else’s.

If you take the time to write, reflect, and learn about yourself, you can learn to celebrate what makes you great. No one will be able to hold you back once you do.

So get ready to learn about passion, pain, and purpose on Episode 746.

Jay Shetty: Small Changes for Lasting Results

WHERE YOUR FOCUS GOES, YOUR ENERGY WILL FLOW.

How do you define yourself?

Do you use words like “ugly,” “fat,” or “shy?”

Social media and advertising like to tell us that we’re not enough. But you don’t have to live by anyone else’s definition-you have the power to create your own.

Write your own view of yourself. Right now. Do it.

What you believe you will be is what you will become.

On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I’m sharing a powerful presentation from The Summit of Greatness from a musician who redefined a genre and herself: Lindsey Stirling.

Lindsey Stirling is a violinist, dancer, performance artist, composer, and singer who presents amazing choreographed violin performances. Stirling was second place on last year’s Dancing With The Stars, has been named Forbes magazine's 30 Under 30 In Music, and was a quarter-finalist position on America's Got Talent season five.

Billions of people have now watched her videos on YouTube.

Lindsey struggled with depression and anorexia. It wasn’t until she decided to change her thought patterns about herself and about her future that became the powerful musician we know today.

So get ready to learn how to create your own definition for your life on Episode 749.

Lindsey Stirling: The Power of Your Truth

YOU ARE WORTHY OF LOVE.

So many of us hide who we truly are.

We bury our shame thinking that if anyone knew we would no longer be accepted. 

But living this way keeps us from connecting with others.

It keeps us from truly experiencing life.

I kept my history of abuse hidden for a long time. It wasn’t until I told my story that I could become the person I am today.

You have to forgive yourself.

On today’s episode of The School of Greatness, I talk about shame with a person of great courage and integrity: Terry Crews.

Terry Crews is an actor, activist, artist, and former NFL football player. He plays “Terry” on Brooklyn 99 and is now a host on America’s Got Talent. Terry was included among the group of people named as Time Magazine's Person of the Year in 2017 for going public with stories of sexual assault.
