Do you ever feel like there’s something more that you want to do? Whether it's opening up a new line of income, investing in something, starting a business, or even just learning a new hobby, it’s never too late to pursue it. And with the world that we have right now and what we have at our fingertips, going BIG is more possible than ever!
If you’re ready to step to the next level, then this podcast is for you. Each week, I’m going to share tips and tricks to help you get  where you want to go or accomplish what you want to achieve.
Today, I’m going to share my personal journey, going through anxiety and depression, getting diagnosed with ADHD (which is a true superpower by the way!), making a decision to become the best version of myself, and most importantly, taking action.
I hope to inspire you to take ownership and control of your life. It's not just about going to that next level – it's about all the levels above it that you may not even know about yet.
Here are some power takeaways from today’s conversation:
What ‘level after next’ means
The idea of situational depression
Advocating for yourself
Why ADHD is a superpower
The desire to achieve more in life
Lessons from my mentor, Justin Prince
Taking responsibility for everything in your life
Episode Highlights:

The more you learn about yourself, the more you want to learn about yourself. And if everybody would just try to become the best version of themselves, then we would be living in heaven on earth.
In moments when you think you can't or don't know how to create your own plan, don’t be afraid to reach out for help in creating that plan. The only scary part is that moment of reaching out, but once you get past it, you realize it was only fear of something that never actually existed. Ninety-eight percent of fear is simply inaction, and so, it's about getting into that action.

For many of us who have been diagnosed with ADHD, we tend to focus on our weaknesses. Instead of doing that, begin looking at what strengths you have. When you are able to zone in on your strengths, it's going to help you focus on not only how to fix your weaknesses, but also utilize those strengths. Then you’ll be able to figure out what your next steps will be and how you can show up for yourself and for other people. Recognizing your strengths is going to open up a whole world of opportunity.

In business and in life, and in everything else, we have the tendency to take the easy way out, and that includes blaming other people for our failures. Take ownership of every task that you attend to every day, how well you do it, and whether you're putting full energy into it or not. If you want to go to the next level or the level after next, you have to take full and complete responsibility for everything.
