Judah from Connecticut-

For Judah, life as a PK (Pastors Kid) had 2 standards:  what people saw at church and what actually happened at home.  His journey takes him through abuse, the wrong crowd, depression, the loss of his father, drug overdose and nearly ending it all on a bridge one night.  What he learns from a near death experience changes his life, and now he lives it with no limit to what he can do.

Transformation Tips:  How to Stop Letting Your Past Hold Your Future Hostage

• Don't be afraid to get help
• Be vulnerable and honest about what's happened in your life thus far.  Your  past does not define you. 
• Change your mindset:  YOU ARE ENOUGH.  
• "Do the work" to have a healthy mind
• Talk about depression- the worst you can do is keep it to yourself
• Know God to know yourself
• Find your tribe- who you surround yourself with, matters.  Where will you be in 5 years with the people who currently influence you?  If it doesn't align with your goals and dreams, you need to make changes in your relationships, and who you choose to keep close.

Timi from Texas-

Summary:

Timi Komo, a TEDx Speaker, middle child, entrepreneur and YouTuber stops by to gab about sooo many things (honestly I should've taken notes...she gives AMAZING insight).  She makes "owning your truth" feel so easy!  In this candid conversation-style episode, we dish about our personal results of the Clifton Strengths Assessment (personality/strengths finder test) and our thoughts on how well it helps people (or not) in finding themselves.  Timi also drops bits of ridiculously good advice on boundaries, recovering from people-pleasing mentality, mindset + MORE!  Just listen...you will love her!

Take the Test: 

Clifton Strengths Assessment (Strengths Finder Personality Test)  *I am NOT an affiliate, this is a paid test, starting around $20*

Transformation Tips:  How to get the most out of your strengths

• Strengths aren't just helpful for understanding yourself, but for working with other people and navigating teams.  Personality tests can be a great way to help you dig a little deeper.  
• Know that your strengths will change as your life changes and demands different things of you.  The strengths you were growing and nurturing 5 years ago are not the same strengths you are honing and building up today.
• Ask for feedback from 3 different people, "when was I at my best self?"  Look for themes and patterns that emerge from their answers.
• Reflect and jot down your own ideas, tap into what makes you, YOU!  Emotions can be misleading, so writing things down can help you see where you are strong and stand out!
• Journal experiences and feelings, then go back to reveal themes and patterns you may have otherwise overlooked.   You may discover areas of strength you hadn't acknowledged before.

Ricardo from Cali-

Summary:

Ricardo's girlfriend is shot and killed at only 15 years old.  This fueled his drinking as a teen, which opened the door to substance abuse, codependency in relationships, a prison stint and very dark times.  Ironically, the demons he's been running from for so long are the very same he runs out to help others with today.  From a liter of Vodka every day just to numb the pain, to victory as an entrepreneur on a mission to provide support in fitness, finance and mental wellness for first responders and law enforcement battling all kinds of setbacks.  Ricardo had to make peace with his past to unlock his purpose and connect with his destiny.  

Transformation Tip: Live with Purpose

10 steps to align with your purpose path:

1. Belief system: shift your mindset.  Know your value.
2. Self-Discovery:  know who you are at the core.  Articulate your strengths, talents, weaknesses and core values.
3. Learn from your past:  your past provides clues to the future. What have you overcome? What difference has that made in your life
4. Learn where you contribute with the greatest impact: your purpose often lies where your talents (natural gifts) + strengths (things you have overcome, skills) + passions (your mission, stance, your love for something) collide.  
5. What service can you provide to others?   Who would benefit most from your talents, strengths, knowledge and passions? 
6. Learn and practice Emotional Intelligence:  Immerse yourself in learning and becoming aware of why you are, who you are.
7. Identify what holds you back and breakthrough mental strongholds:  step into your full potential.
8. Have vision for your life:  define what you dream about...they are clues!
9. Find and reveal passions by taking action:  It's not enough to write them down or relive your childhood daydreams.  Passions are activated by action.
10. Reconnect with God:  You cannot live to your full potential and find the significance and fulfillment you are searching for without this relationship.
