One of the biggest challenges we face when we come up with an idea is taking it to the execution phase. We generally spend so much time planning, analyzing, asking for advice and opinions from multiple people, that we sometimes miss the opportunities that are right in front of us. And yes, some of the preparation is required and encouraged, but it’s time to realize that sometimes we’re overthinking everything and that there is something we can do about it. Today, I have the distinct pleasure of having Carolyn Cushman DeSena as my guest, who’s the epitome of one of the features of a true orange – a contributor to others’ success. We dive deep into how she took all the tools she learned from crushing it on Wall Street and brought them to the charitable world and she shares with us her journey to realizing that the Universe is always working in our favor – we just have to be able to recognize the opportunities that it puts in front of us.

For us to achieve success in whatever we do, it is imperative that we have a strong mentality instilled in us. Our mindset influences our perspective so strongly and it’s sometimes difficult to reconcile with how much control we have over those thoughts. In this episode, I share my personal tips for developing the correct mindset and teach you how to hone the tools that will assist you in pursuing your goals. I also discuss the importance of asking ourselves ‘why’ questions and explore what our values mean to us on more than just a superficial level. To truly have an understanding of what is important to us, we have to get to the root of those beliefs and be able to sit with the discomfort that may come along with it. One of my mentors and huge inspirations, Tony Robbins, has adopted the ideology that we have the power to apply meaning to whatever happens to us in life. I’m a big believer in this and give some insights into how we can shift our thinking in a more positive direction, as well as take control over how we respond to huge events.

As a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? Astronaut? Fireman? Police officer? I wanted to be a rockstar – specifically, I dreamed of being part of Aerosmith. But that’s not quite what happened – now I run a business that sells used equipment. It’s not sexy, and it’s not the same as playing guitar on stage, but at its core, it provides the same benefits of being a rockstar: flexibility, money, significance, and freedom. That’s what this episode is all about: going after the core of your dreams, and the money will follow. There’s always a way to make a buck, but in the end, happiness is what we should all strive for. In This Episode, You Will Learn: What truly drives a purposeful vocation and a fulfilled life. (0:47)How I define success. (5:41)Why I eventually started a company to sell used equipment. (8:11)Why now’s the perfect time to follow what you love. (11:37)Let’s Connect!WebsiteLinkedInFacebookInstagram See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The energy it takes to CRUSH IT!After years of being led by my ego, my business partner encouraged me to explore a personal development seminar. I was hooked and went on to learn from the greats: Tony Robbins, Zig Zigler, Brian Tracy etc. I’ve studied at length the science of communication, influence and neuro linguistic programming and learned how powerful we as individuals are. We control the narrative of our lives and we have the power to change the meaning that we put on it; if things don't align with who we are, who we want to be and what we want in our lives, then it’s on us to change it.That’s what Orange Crushing It is all about - changing the narrative to help you get the most joy, gratitude, excitement and success out of life.
