Why does dreaming big sometimes feel terrifying? Why do we hit walls of fear, procrastination, and self-sabotage just when we start aiming higher? In this episode of Remember Your Greatness, I share my own journey of chasing big dreams — from Hollywood sets to filmmaking — and what I learned about the resistance that shows up along the way.
I discuss:
• Why old conditioning makes dreaming feel dangerous
• The real reason fear shows up when we aim higher
• Practical tools for working with fear (naming it, embodiment, micro-steps, connecting with your future self)
• Why spending time with other dreamers is essential
• Stories of clients and my own experience of breaking through walls
Big dreams aren’t just about reaching the destination. Even if you don’t get exactly what you imagined, you’ll become more than you ever thought possible along the way.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
