1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,880
and Rebecca, why do you think leaders

2
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:03,440
hide from funding their vision?

3
00:00:04,560 --> 00:00:08,720
I think that betting on ourselves as leaders

4
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,400
and entrepreneurs and influencers

5
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,840
is the scariest decision that we need to make.

6
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,900
And when you're funding your vision,

7
00:00:18,900 --> 00:00:23,320
you're betting on yourself and there's no turning back

8
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,880
and there's no guarantee.

9
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:30,320
But what I would say is a better question is,

10
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:34,180
would you rather fund your vision and know you did?

11
00:00:34,180 --> 00:00:36,240
Know you left no stone unturned

12
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,960
or would you rather not fund it

13
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,920
because of your doubt and your uncertainty

14
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,400
and guarantee the vision and the dream never actualizes?

15
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:47,440
It is so safe to fund your vision.

16
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:52,440
I have invested more in my vision every year for 15 years

17
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,000
than any other expense my family has.

18
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,360
And I don't regret one bit of that.

19
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,740
And I highly encourage you, bet on yourself, go for it.

20
00:01:01,740 --> 00:01:03,360
Know that you did.

21
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,400
And from there, you'll have no regrets

22
00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,600
no matter what happens.

23
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:13,080
When you talk about betting on yourself,

24
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,500
and I think that's close to my next question is,

25
00:01:15,500 --> 00:01:17,800
how do leaders lean into funding their vision?

26
00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:19,960
What do you mean by that?

27
00:01:19,960 --> 00:01:24,960
Funding your vision is about time, energy, resources,

28
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,760
and finances, right?

29
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,920
It's not just about the money behind it,

30
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,360
but there is no vision that can come to life

31
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,540
if you don't fuel it.

32
00:01:36,540 --> 00:01:41,520
So it's about blocking your time and prioritizing

33
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,840
and giving yourself permission to go for it.

34
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,800
And there's, I'm thinking about,

35
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,600
not just the big picture vision,

36
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,120
there's also prioritizing and funding projects.

37
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,860
I spent four years on my book, Coming Back to Life,

38
00:01:57,860 --> 00:02:00,800
and now I'm in that 1% of authors

39
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,200
that got a major publishing deal.

40
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,640
But it was four years of investing

41
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,720
before I got any cash advance from a publisher

42
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:15,560
and before we had started to really sell the books.

43
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:20,080
And it's just so important to give yourself permission

44
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,960
to prioritize and to know that the funding of the vision,

45
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,880
it's more than the finances.

46
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,440
It's your everything, your time,

47
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,660
and all of what it takes to get it done.

48
00:02:32,660 --> 00:02:35,120
What does it take to get it done?

49
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,480
Staying all in until it's done.

50
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:39,600
And as a cancer survivor,

51
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,920
I can't help but think about that journey I went on here

52
00:02:43,920 --> 00:02:45,640
because it literally had to get to the point

53
00:02:45,640 --> 00:02:47,240
where there was no other option.

54
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,840
I had to burn the option of I'm not gonna live,

55
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,640
even though they only gave me a 5% chance to live.

56
00:02:53,640 --> 00:02:56,240
I had to take that completely off the table.

57
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,520
So what does it take to get it done?

58
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,760
You burn the option of any other option.

59
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,660
And then my number one hack for getting it done from there

60
00:03:06,660 --> 00:03:08,880
is bite-size chunk it.

61
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,240
Just get to the next right, correct,

62
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,400
most aligned step for you

63
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:14,520
and let that be enough.

64
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,180
You have the big picture vision,

65
00:03:16,180 --> 00:03:19,080
but if we get overwhelmed and in the weeds

66
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,680
thinking about the infinite to-do list

67
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:24,560
and letting that stress us out,

68
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:25,980
we're not gonna get very far.

69
00:03:25,980 --> 00:03:28,180
So know the big picture,

70
00:03:28,180 --> 00:03:30,920
burn the option that you're gonna fail and go for it,

71
00:03:30,920 --> 00:03:32,880
whatever it takes as long as it takes,

72
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,240
one step at a time.

73
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,000
And you literally can't fail.

74
00:03:38,100 --> 00:03:40,360
That goes to my next question for you, Rebecca.

75
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,680
Where are you going with your vision?

76
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:48,360
To Hollywood and networks and making a show

77
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,360
all about relationship goals.

78
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:55,080
And it'll be my husband jokes, healing TV, not reality TV,

79
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,800
where we take my work that I'm doing every day already

80
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,600
with my clients in person,

81
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,480
and we showcase what's possible for everyone

82
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,400
so that they can heal in real time

83
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,960
while they watch a couple or a family

84
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,080
doing their healing work.

85
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:10,880
Can you tell me more about that?

86
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,640
Yeah, the goal is to reach and help

87
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,400
a million families heal in 2024.

88
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,880
So we want to get people, my lead magnet,

89
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,520
the masterclass that I created and produced,

90
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,000
the three must-know secrets to heal and save your family.

91
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,600
We wanna get a million people through that masterclass

92
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,800
so that they can purchase my book,

93
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,880
Coming Back to Life and my course,

94
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,720
The Emotional Survival Kit.

95
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,640
And the show is an amazing platform

96
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,440
to reach the masses so that they can get access,

97
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,040
not just to the show, but to the masterclass

98
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,480
and my products and services that can help them

99
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:51,480
in real time in their own time at their own pace at home.

100
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,080
And how close are you to the show?

101
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:55,960
That's an interesting question.

102
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:57,320
I don't think it's far away.

103
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,200
We're in lots of conversations already.

104
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,680
I'm really confident that this fall

105
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,240
we'll put a deal together.

106
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:08,840
And I'm not concerned about how long it's gonna take

107
00:05:08,840 --> 00:05:11,280
back to your previous question,

108
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:13,960
how do you fund the mission, the mission and the vision?

109
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,640
You stay all in, whatever it takes, as long as it takes.

110
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,960
So I try not to get caught up in like,

111
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,440
when is this gonna happen and how close am I?

112
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:22,920
Because I find that that just creates

113
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,560
a lot of unnecessary stress

114
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,880
that energetically taints the whole picture

115
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:28,720
of what I'm creating.

116
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:33,200
So I think we're close and I'm in it until it's done.

117
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:37,720
So I'm not focusing on the timing of it.

118
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:39,120
Thank you for being here today.

119
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,560

120
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:44,240

as these episodes continue to move forward.

122
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:48,240
This is gonna get more and more fun.

123
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,120
We'll have more and more engagement as well.

124
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,240
We'll invite people to participate in the show.

125

126

127
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:04,240
and becoming a Vision Pro yourself.
