In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why waiting for certainty keeps you broke - and what to do instead
  • The magic of giving before getting - how generosity becomes your competitive advantage
  • How to delete your inner "what if" voice - and start trusting life's intelligence


What happens when you stop asking for permission and start creating your own opportunities?

Last week, I was talking to a friend who's been "getting ready" to launch her business for three years. She has the perfect website mockups, a detailed business plan, and a spreadsheet that would make a NASA engineer weep with joy. Meanwhile, she's still working a job she hates, waiting for the right moment that apparently requires a solar eclipse and her horoscope to say "today's the day."

It got me thinking about the stories we tell ourselves about readiness, about safety, about doing things the "right" way. Most of us have been conditioned to believe that preparation equals protection. That if we just plan enough, research enough, save enough, we can somehow guarantee our success before we even start. Spoiler alert: that guarantee doesn't exist.

But what if that's backwards? What if the very act of waiting for certainty is what keeps us stuck in patterns that don't serve us?

Sometimes the biggest shift isn't about changing what you do—it's about changing who you surround yourself with.

Today our guest is Mark Yuzuik, a transformational speaker and master hypnotist who has motivated and entertained hundreds of thousands of people throughout the world for more than 25 years. He's living proof that when you stop waiting for permission, life starts saying yes in ways you never expected.
