I get personal in this episode, sharing some of my own moments of self-discovery that have led me through the transformative power of letting our ego thoughts burn down. We tend to identify and value ourselves based on our relationships, our jobs, or our assets. But the truth is all these things can be lost or taken away from us. And when any of these things happen it can be quite the gut punch and leave us wondering who we really are without these pieces of ourselves. This is our ego at work. When these painful and humbling moments occur in our lives it is a wake up call to help us break away from the Ego so we transform our lives. Two of our investment properties in Maui were consumed by the recent unforgiving fires. But this tragedy also became a profound turning point, reminding me that our true value is not tied to our assets. Through heartfelt reflection, I share how the flames that devoured those properties also ignited a powerful realization – that material possessions can vanish in an instant, but our inner worth endures. Strength and wisdom are some of the positive effects that are beginning to emerge from the ashes. The experience of losing everything can lead to a newfound appreciation for what truly matters and how you, too, can embark on a path of self-renewal.
