Playing it safe feels comfortable, right? But here’s the truth: safe is actually the riskiest move you can make. In this episode, I’m breaking down the real cost of hiding in your comfort zone—lost time, lost money, lost confidence, and worst of all… lost dreams.

I’ll share how saying “yes” to starting a property management company with Nick (even in the craziest season of our lives!) opened doors we never would’ve imagined. And I’ll ask you the same questions I’ve been asking myself: What is staying safe costing you? Where are you shrinking instead of stepping forward?

Because regret? That’s heavier than any risk you’ll ever take. This week, I’m challenging you to trade safety for courage and take the leap you’ve been putting off. Your dream life isn’t built in your comfort zone—it’s waiting on the other side of risk. 💥

I’m back after a whirlwind couple of weeks (hello new business!) and today I’m sharing something that’s been on my heart big time: the power of doing things differently. 💥

If you want extraordinary results, you can’t keep doing what everyone else is doing. Period.

In this episode, I tell the behind-the-scenes story of our brand-new property management company and how breaking away from the “normal” way has already created crazy momentum. From real estate to fitness to content creation, the same truth applies—blending in keeps you invisible, standing out opens doors.

I’ll walk you through how we flipped the script, what I’ve learned from mentors who never follow the crowd, and a simple challenge you can start this week to break free from “average.” If you’ve been feeling stuck or playing it safe, this episode is your permission slip to zig when everyone else zags.

Chapters:

• 00:00 Welcome Back to Do Life Big!

• 02:22 Real-Life Example: Property Management Success
• 07:01 The Problem with Following the Norm
• 08:54 Applying the Concept to Your Life and Business

In this episode, I’m keeping it real with you — because the truth is, life doesn’t just hand us the things we want. Success, impact, freedom… none of it shows up by wishing for it. You’ve gotta roll up your sleeves, do the work, and earn it.

I share some behind-the-scenes stories from building our new business, the lessons I’ve been learning from some powerhouse entrepreneurs, and why the grind, the persistence, and the uncomfortable growth moments are actually the biggest rewards of all.

So if you’ve ever caught yourself waiting for things to “just happen” — this is your reminder that the reward isn’t only in the result, it’s in who you become along the way. 💪

Let’s do life big — and let’s WORK for it!
