“We all have two lives, and the second begins when we realize we have only one.” This episode marks the end of this podcast series, so I want to use this episode as a way to reflect, celebrate and sow the seeds for my future. Today, I am talking about death, life and peace. Although I still struggle with death now, I am starting to see the beauty in it. I am starting to see that death ironically breeds life. There is this natural balance in play. Even though I have struggles with moving on from this podcast series, I am making my peace with it. What's helped with this transition is shifting my focus from what's dying to what's living. As a matter of fact, I even use death as a way to live more fully. In an odd way, death is simplifying life for me and teaching me how to live – to live in a way as if I only have one life. As I reflect on my past, appreciate the present and plan for my future, I found that death is what inspired the life I have lived this past year, the life I am living now and the life I plan to live in the future. So even as I say peace out to this podcast series, I am also genuinely excited for my future and what's ahead. *** If you are a fan of the pod, it would mean a lot to me if you rate and review Personal Legend on Apple Podcasts.

“I'm not saying I'm gonna change the world, but I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will change the world.” – Tupac Shakur, American rapper Dreams beget other dreams, not just for yourself personally but for other people as well. When you identify who you truly are, embrace yourself and chase after your dreams, you naturally inspire other people through your actions. So, I encourage that if you have a dream, do it not only for yourself but also for the people who look up to you. I am not here to tell you that dreams are all sunshine and rainbows either. Chasing your dreams is fucking hard. In the pursuit of your dreams, you will face some of the greatest challenges of your life. There may even be times when you may even question whether or not to keep chasing after it, but I urge you in those moments to keep believing, fighting and manifesting. You never know where that one extra push will take you and how it will inspire others. By keeping your dreams alive, you naturally keep the dreams of others alive as well. This is why I want to share my dreams with you, in hopes to inspire yours. *** If you are a fan of the pod, it would mean a lot to me if you rate and review Personal Legend on Apple Podcasts.

“What the universe will manifest when you are in alignment with it is a lot more interesting than what you try to manifest.” – Adyashanti, American teacher Living with purpose is a lifestyle. Every day you are presented with the opportunity to align yourself with your greater purpose in life, but it is up to you to decide whether to accept that calling or not. I am going to share stories from my life to give you a better sense of how small decisions can potentially lead you to your greater purpose. Hopefully my stories can inspire you to live more purposefully. *** If you are a fan of the pod, it would mean a lot to me if you rate and review Personal Legend on Apple Podcasts.

“To study the self is to forget the self. To forget the self is to be enlightened by all things.” – Dōgen, Japanese Buddhist philosopher Today, I am sharing how the art of surrendering and letting go empowered me to become the best version of myself. By pursuing the journey of building my podcast and business, I knew I would be entering the most challenging time of my life. At times, I even felt like I was constantly at war with myself. In order to liberate myself from all my inner demons and be at peace, I needed to surrender and let go. In this episode, I will break down how I used the art of surrendering and letting go to experience true freedom, executional prowess and unified community. I hope that you gain a better sense of how to surrender and let go in your life to become the best version of yourself. *** If you are a fan of the pod, it would mean a lot to me if you rate and review Personal Legend on Apple Podcasts.

“When you are in alignment with the desires of your heart, things have a way of working out.” – Iyanla Vanzant, American inspirational speaker Today, I am sharing how I made the decision to effectively leave corporate and focus on pursuing my passions. During this process, I realized there are two parts to making any great decision: one is the decision itself and the other is the visceral reaction you have in the decision. In order to make the best decision that feels right to you, you must achieve mental, emotional and spiritual alignment first. This three-pronged approach was instrumental in my decision to take my Second Leap of Faith and I will breakdown every part of it with my personal experiences. By the end of the episode, I hope that you gain a better sense of how to use the mental, emotional and spiritual decision-making framework and apply it in your life. *** If you are a fan of the pod, it would mean a lot to me if you rate and review Personal Legend on Apple Podcasts.

“Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson, American essayist Today, I cover my personal experience with observing and responding to two types of Guiding Omens, the ones that have told me to stay away from certain paths and the ones that have told me to stay the course. I hope that this episode gives you a better understanding of what Guiding Omens look like and encourages you to refine the skill of listening to the Guiding Omens in order to make better life decisions. *** If you are a fan of the pod, it would mean a lot to me if you rate and review Personal Legend on Apple Podcasts.

Today, I go into something that took me by surprise. It is how spending less time with my podcast made it better. Shifting away from the tunnel vision of making my podcast my single-minded priority into a more well-balanced approach that encompasses other parts of my life not only made my podcast better, but it also made me better in ways that I never thought possible. *** If you are a fan of the pod, it would mean a lot to me if you rate and review Personal Legend on Apple Podcasts.

“Sometimes, you have to destroy something in order to build something better.” ― Brandon Sanderson, American fiction writer How do you bridge the gap between your old life and your new, desired life? Short-Term: The simplest step you can take is to try the things you are interested in. If you enjoy it, do more of it.

I will dive deeper into how defining my Personal Legend with honesty and deep reflection changed my life for the better. In this episode, Personal Legend is defined as your purpose in life, and living a life true to yourself and not one that others expect of you. Why is it so important to define your Personal Legend? It is important, because we only have one life to live. We owe it to ourselves to make the most out of this one life and do more of the things we love. When you define your Personal Legend and manifest it, I am sure it will change your life. “Your career is what you're paid for.
