As we strive to fulfill our obligations and responsibilities to career and loved ones, we sometimes forget to see and understand what we really want. There's nothing wrong with serving them, but the very behaviors we do, the strengths we possess, can trigger food and body weight problems.

Often, we're too busy caring for others to care for ourselves, so we don't realize what truly makes us happy. It's easy to fall into a routine that doesn't serve us well.

When we set a goal for ourselves, distractions and excuses get in the way. Getting triggered by so many things ruins our day. What would it be like to be goal-driven and make things happen?

In 2011 Jodie Cook started a digital agency that was acquired in 2021. Alongside running a business she writes books and articles about entrepreneurship and competes in powerlifting. She lives in different places every few months. She wrote books that include: Stop acting like you’re going to live forever (volumes one and two plus guided journals), Daily Me: short morning reads to choose your day. She also co-wrote How to raise entrepreneurial kids and the Clever Tykes storybooks.

In this episode, Jodie teaches how to pursue your dreams and own them. There is something to be said about awareness. Making things happen requires knowing what you want for yourself.

“Do something different if you’re not happy with your relationships, go and invest in them more. If you’re not happy with your bank balance, you have to earn more. It’s so simple but I think we avoid awareness in the first place and we’re trying to excuse it.” - Jodie Cook
