Ever caught yourself staring at the ceiling at 3 AM, wondering, "Is this it?" despite ticking all the boxes society handed you? You're not alone. Laura discusses what it truly means to build a life that lights you up from within – not the polished highlight reel or hustle-harder narrative we've all grown tired of.

Hello, it's Laura. Welcome to your peak of the week. Hey, I just want to say thank you to all of you who have sent us text messages. We so appreciate hearing from you. Thank you so much. Please click that. Send us a text, because we are in the middle of planning what season three of this podcast looks like.

Speaker 1:

Reminder the first section is all Mondo's, all Mondo stories, all his truths from his walk, and then season two is when we begin to collaborate and really have some very in-depth dialogues about what it means to be awoken to, what is really going on here. And some people find this time to be kind of confusing. And I get that, and Mondo gets that, and many of you get that. And it's nice to have a safe space. A safe space, we'll call it. So keep sending us that awesome feedback.

Today we are talking about building a life that lights you up. All right, so let's have a real talk. I mean that's kind of the only talk I do. But yes, we'll have a real talk, not the polished version, not the highlight reel, not the let's just hustle harder nonsense that we've grown tired of. Let's talk about building a life that actually lights you up from within, because here's the truth. Nobody is brave enough to tell you. The life you're secretly aching for isn't built by achieving more. It's built by remembering who you are and choosing to live from that place, fully, unapologetically, even when it terrifies you. If you're anything like the brilliant people I get to work with, you've already checked all the boxes. Society handed you Career nailed it. Career Nailed it Maybe even twice over. Family you love them deeply. Success From the outside, it looks impressive, and yet there's that persistent whisper that wakes you up at 3am. Is this it? Why do I feel like I'm just performing rather than living? Wasn't there supposed to be more Spoiler alert? There is, but it's not what you've been conditioned to chase. It's not more titles, more income or a bigger LinkedIn following. It's more aliveness, more alignment, more you, more alignment, more you, unfiltered and unburdened. The hard truth I mean that comes with some profound hope in it is this you were never meant to spend your one precious life performing for others, for approval, for acceptance. You were meant to create, to connect, to live lit up from the within, so that your outer life becomes a genuine reflection of your inner truth. The problem Most of us were sold a dream that wasn't ours, a dream that whispered success equals sacrifice. That convinced us, achievement equals worthiness. That normalized burnout as simply the price of admission. I'm here to disrupt that narrative, gently but powerfully, because here's what I know with absolute certainty you don't have to blow up your life to build a better one. You just need to get clearer, not louder, how to start building a life that actually lights you up. There is no one-size-fits-all formula. If there were, your brilliant mind would have discovered it already. But there is a starting point. It's what I call the four A's framework. It's what I base my entire book on these foundations and, yes, my book is coming out later this summer.

Speaker 1:

Awareness when are you performing instead of being yourself? Where are you saying yes when your body is screaming no? What masks have become so comfortable you've forgotten they're not your face. Can you view your currency problem with compassion instead of judgment? Sorry, I moved on to attitude. I am reading fast. Okay, I need to slow down a little bit. So, attitude Can you view your currency problem with compassion instead of judgment? Can you honor the fact that if you feel restless, it's because you're ready for a new you to emerge, not because you're broken? What if your dissatisfaction isn't a flaw, but a compass pointing you towards your truest self, all right.

Speaker 1:

Next is action. These are the questions to consider for action. What single action could you take today, today, today, people that's aligned with you. Not the massive life overhaul, but one brave first step that feels right, one honest conversation or one decision that honors what you know to be true. And here we go for alignment. What would it feel like to make choices that honor your truth, even when nobody applauds them? How might your leadership transform when it flows from authenticity rather than expectation? What becomes possible when your inner and outer worlds finally match? This 4A's framework from Shine Brighter is it's deceptively simple Awareness, attitude, action, alignment. I've watched it transform lives, so many lives, high achievers who are exactly where you are now. And here's the part that gives me chills Chills after doing this work.

Speaker 1:

Your life won't suddenly light you up when you finally arrive at some imaginary destination. It starts lighting you up the moment you stop waiting, the moment you stop waiting and you live in integrity integrity with yourself, even in the smallest ways. You don't need a new job first, you don't need permission first, you don't need to have it all figured out. You need presence, you need truth. You need you fully awake. I'm going to snap my fingers here Wake up, fully awake, fully alive. And you have that power right now, in this very moment.

Speaker 1:

If this message has pierced through your professional armor and touched something raw within you, good, good, that's your inner wisdom, it's stirring, that's your soul, nudging you. You don't need to overhaul your life. You don't need to have all the answers. You don't need to have all the answers. You just need to decide, decide this. I'm ready to live a life that lights me up. I'm ready to live a life that lights me up even when it's messy, even when it's uncertain, especially when it means choosing truth over comfort. If you're ready to take the next step, I am here. I am here for this. If this has gotten you excited, I'm like oh, that is what my soul wants. So I'm not here to hype you with empty promises. I'm holding a mirror. I'm holding a mirror to the truth that you already know.

Speaker 1:

One honest, aligned choice at a time. Your light isn't just needed, it's essential. You are an important part of what's happening right now and I know, you know this. If this is reaching into the depth of your soul, this is you. You know that you have an important role to play. You do. There's something that only you can provide with your gifts, with your passion, with your energy, and the world is waiting for you. I'm waiting for you, the people that need your help are waiting for you. And there's a news flash you are in the best position to serve the person you once were. I know you have transformed your life. You have transformed your life in one way, shape or form, and you can teach others how to do that. You know how to do that and, more importantly, you have the passion. You know your life was meant for something more One honest, aligned choice at a time. I have so much belief in your magnificence. Go, take some action today.
