How I was culturally conditioned to living in the dark and my lightbulb moment

Creative Business Mindset

Have you ever adjusted to something inconvenient without realizing it? In today’s episode, I share a story about a lightbulb in my closet that went out—and how I walked in the dark for a whole year before finally fixing it. It seemed like a small thing, but it became a powerful reminder of how often we settle for less, simply because we’ve gotten used to it.

We do this in our careers, relationships, and personal growth. We tell ourselves it’s not a big deal, but over-time, settling for “good enough” keeps us stuck. Today, we are flipping the switch—literally and figuratively—to uncover why it’s time to stop walking in the dark and step into the light.

In this episode, I’ll break down:

• How small changes can create major breakthroughs
• Why procrastination keeps us stuck in the dark
• The hidden mindsets we’ve inherited that no longer serve us
• A powerful lesson from Ephesians 5:8 about stepping into the light

This episode will challenge you to take one simple action today that could change everything.

• Procrastination makes problems seem bigger than they are
