The Journey to Greatness: Lessons from a Paralympic Gold Medalist🥇
Ever felt like you’re stuck in a rut? Or perhaps you feel like you’re not making any progress in life. Well, we’ve been there, and we can assure you, it's not a pleasant feeling. Often, we fail to appreciate our own progress, and that’s why we've dedicated this whole episode to the concept of "pumping up your tires" - a metaphor for reminding ourselves of our past successes to inspire confidence and positivity. It's all about celebrating every win, big or small, and utilizing those achievements to fuel our courage and faith as we face new challenges.
We've got some personal stories to share, some of which got us teary-eyed and others that had us punching the air in triumph. We delve into the power of journaling as an instrument for self-reflection and the documentation of our victories. Also, we emphasize the importance of verbalizing our accomplishments, making them more tangible and empowering. And if you’re wondering what's next on our journey, we sprinkle in a little anticipation with a tease about our upcoming projects. So tune in, and let’s start 'pumping up those tires' together, appreciating how far we've come, and preparing for the journey ahead.

Creating Meaningful Connections with Loved Ones
What if the key to living a truly successful and joyful life was simply about aligning your desires with your decisions and divine design? What if shifting your perspective could bring about new opportunities and positive changes? That's what we, Jana and Jason, explore in this episode of Living Lucky. We delve into the common struggles many face in relationships, especially within a family context. Using a fictional character, John, we offer a thought-provoking analysis of how miscommunication and misinterpretation within a family unit can lead to resentment and frustration.
The story of John, who tries to show love by immersing himself in work, only to feel distant from his family is relatable to many. We help break down this cycle, showing you how you can turn around such scenarios by aligning your actions with your family's needs. Additionally, we discuss Wayne Dyer's concept of "swimming upstream" and how changing your level of consciousness can help you move with the flow of life. By the end of this episode, you'll understand how you can turn your life into an upward success cycle by focusing on quality time and meaningful interactions with your loved ones. So, join us and let's start living lucky together.

The Price of Passion: A Tale of Ballroom Dance and Unexpected Expenses
Have you ever dreamt of stepping onto a grand stage, commanding the spotlight with your every move, and leaving an indelible mark on your audience through the art of dance? Join us, Jana and Jason, as we unveil our exhilarating journey into the captivating world of ballroom dancing. In this episode, we'll share how this adventure not only elevated our personal vibrations and deepened our connection but also unexpectedly thrust us into a surprising challenge - the daunting world of performance costumes.
Picture this: the thrill of receiving a thunderous standing ovation, the anxious nerves that flutter before each lesson, and the sheer shock that coursed through us when we uncovered the true cost of our performance ensembles.
Yet, our story is more than just a dance chronicle; it's a reflection of life's unexpected twists and turns. We'll peel back the curtain to reveal how our interaction with a costume designer became a finely-tuned sales dance, a mesmerizing waltz of emotions and decisions. We'll candidly share the moment when we realized our assumptions about costume prices were off by a few zeros, leading to a wave of embarrassment and self-reflection.
But this tale isn't just about the value of costumes; it's about the value of work, the power of assumptions, and the resilience we muster when navigating the uncharted terrain of life's journey. Tune in for a rollercoaster ride that'll take you beyond the realms of comfort, thrust you into unforeseen hurdles, and ultimately, help you find your unique rhythm in life. Spoiler Alert: There may just be a jaw-dropping $6000 surprise waiting for you at the crescendo of this captivating episode.
So, if you're ready to shimmy into the world of dance, explore the intricacies of decision-making, and embrace the unexpected, this episode is your front-row ticket. Join us on a symphony of discovery and growth, where the stage is set, the costumes are dazzling, and the lessons are profound. Let's dance through life's twists and turns together!
