Welcome back, Conscious Investor! Today, I dive deep into a topic that’s been on my heart lately: the balance between ambition and relationships. With hustle culture everywhere, we often hear, “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” While there’s truth to this, I want to challenge the extremes we sometimes take this idea to. Do we really need to cut people out of our lives to grow? What if long-standing friendships and supportive relationships are actually assets to our journey, even if they don’t directly align with our goals?

In this episode, I share personal stories and insights into how you can surround yourself with people who uplift you while maintaining meaningful connections with those who’ve been there through life’s ups and downs. From recognizing the importance of reciprocity in relationships to reframing what “adding value” really means, this conversation is an invitation to rethink how we approach the people in our lives. Plus, actionable takeaways to help you evaluate and nurture your relationships without falling into the trap of elitism or hustle culture. Let’s build a life—and a circle—that truly matters.

Welcome back, Conscious Investor! In today’s episode, I’m diving into something that has been on my mind as we approach the new year—resilience. 2024 has been a challenging year for many of us, and now is the perfect time to reflect and prepare for the opportunities that lie ahead. I’m sharing my Resilience Roadmap, a framework that helps us navigate through four key stages: rushing, realization, recovery, and renewal. This roadmap is not just about surviving the hustle but about thriving and finding true balance in your life and business.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through how to assess where you’re at in these stages, and how to transition from rushing and burnout to clarity, recovery, and ultimate renewal. If 2024 was a tough year, I want you to know that setbacks are just setups for growth in 2025. I encourage you to reflect on the past year, check in with your physical, relational, spiritual, and financial well-being, and see where you can make intentional adjustments moving into the new year. This episode is packed with practical tools and a mindset shift to help you start 2025 with renewed purpose. Let’s dive in and make this year the most impactful one yet!

Hey there, Conscious Investor! It’s Julie, and I’m thrilled to dive into the real meaning of having your “best year yet.” In this solo episode, I’m sharing the powerful truth that one year doesn’t define a lifetime. We’ll zoom out to 30,000 feet so we can recognize the bigger picture of our personal development. Even if this year felt like a struggle—maybe you felt stuck with your job, disconnected from friends, or frustrated with family—there are lessons in the challenges that will fuel your long-term transformation. Remember, each tough season creates fertile ground for the good things to come.

Conscious Investor, if you’ve ever put too much pressure on a single year to be perfect, this episode is for you. We’ll talk about shifting from a short-term to a lifetime perspective and how to glean the wisdom and growth buried in the hard stuff. By the end of our conversation, you’ll walk away with fresh hope and a game plan to expand your personal evolution beyond a 12-month window. Your best year yet isn’t about slapping on a gold star; it’s about learning, growing, and evolving so you can carry that transformation forward.
