In this episode of Crystal Uncorked, I’m sharing a recent experience I had on stage at Build Your Brand - Live!
Out of the 300 super connector mastermind members, I was one of 10 who was asked to be on stage to share my experience in the program.
And while I shared about how much my life has changed since I made the decision to invest in myself through the program, I also seized the moment and shared with a room of 600+ people that my biggest dream was to host my own studio talk show.
The response to my testimonial was intense with conference attendees coming up to me asking to take pictures with me so they could say “I knew her when.” Their belief in me and my dreams (even when they didn’t know me) helped me to remember that one of the most powerful things we can do is share our ideas, dreams and hopes openly with the world. It's through sharing that amazing things can happen because you never know who's listening and how they can help get you closer to that dream.
If you aren’t sure what your big dream is yet, then take a minute and think about this. At the end of your life - what will you regret not having tried? What dreams would you regret not chasing? Then how do you get started? I know it's uncomfortable and I know you don't have it all figured out, but you're not going to figure it out until you do it.
Journal on it. If you are up for it, feel free to share with me your thoughts!
