Speaker 1: and for a purpose. And this is your first time
Speaker 1: tuning again, and welcome Vitamin D. It's upon of my name.
Speaker 1: My name is Dawn, and you get Vitamin D from
Speaker 1: the sun. So I'm here to shed light into your life.
Speaker 1: And I do this with inspirational insights and conversations with
Speaker 1: celebrities and everyday people like you and me, Because if
Speaker 1: you want to be better and you want to do better,
Speaker 1: then you're going to have to be able to see better.
Speaker 1: So join me on this journey of living our best
Speaker 1: lives and understanding and realizing how you are your greatest assad.
Speaker 1: Have you been listening on some podcasts back, I've been
Speaker 1: talking about how I really want to work on my
Speaker 1: level of discernment. I wanted to be heightened so that
Speaker 1: when God says mover, whenever there's a situation that I
Speaker 1: gotta make a decision, I just know because I can
Speaker 1: feel it. I'm a tune to it, you know. I
Speaker 1: often think about the things that we scoring life, and
Speaker 1: sometimes we can say perhaps that we're not ready, it's
Speaker 1: not meant for us, or there's something better in mind,
Speaker 1: which I think are all true. And a sub headline
Speaker 1: under that, I feel that goes under the not ready
Speaker 1: yet is having the capacity to deal with it? Because
Speaker 1: have you ever thought what life would be like if
Speaker 1: you got everything you desired? Have you ever thought what
Speaker 1: would happen if God blessed you with all the desires
Speaker 1: of your heart? Would you have the capacity to hold it?
Speaker 1: Have you exercised those muscles? I've asked God for a
Speaker 1: level of discernment, yet I've noticed how I'm getting in
Speaker 1: my way, and I wonder, are you doing the same
Speaker 1: thing now? When I say a level of discernment, I said,
Speaker 1: I just want to know the truth. Thing. We know
Speaker 1: the truth by what we know the truth by the
Speaker 1: way that it feels. I found myself in kindless situations
Speaker 1: where I'm like, oh, something doesn't feel right, But then
Speaker 1: I'm doing this thing of benefit of the doubt. Wait,
Speaker 1: isn't that against what I'm asking for? Dawn? Why aren't
Speaker 1: you trusting yourself like you say you trust yourself? Isn't
Speaker 1: that what we're supposed to do. Listen to the voice within.
Speaker 1: So when the voice is speaking, Dawn, are you listening
Speaker 1: or better yet, what are you hearing? Or better yet,
Speaker 1: are you receiving it? I have to wonder then, I say, Dawn,
Speaker 1: are you truly ready for what you're asking for? Because
Speaker 1: it's being presented to you, But yet you choose not
Speaker 1: to fallow because yet you second guess yourself. You cannot
Speaker 1: doubt yourself. So that's the beautiful thing. I think about confidence,
Speaker 1: And when we talk about faith, it's knowing who you are.
Speaker 1: It's just as confident as you know your name. I am,
Speaker 1: Dawn Day, you are who I am? I am, I am,
Speaker 1: I am. It's just of knowing. And when we can
Speaker 1: walk into space of trusting ourselves and aligning ourselves, we
Speaker 1: don't have to worry about what other people think, and
Speaker 1: therefore we will never second guess what it is that
Speaker 1: we know that we know that we know. So I
Speaker 1: just want to encourage you to listen more. And what's
Speaker 1: your spirit is saying to you that feeling that you feel,
Speaker 1: you feel that for a reason, don't second guess it
Speaker 1: and don't doubt it. I'm saying that to me because
Speaker 1: where I'm headed. I don't have time for distractions. Get
Speaker 1: your right in many right with me, and get excited
Speaker 1: about subject a little career advice. Dear Dawn, I'm looking
Speaker 1: for a little career advice. I'm twenty four and I've
Speaker 1: only really had dead in jobs working in Sacramento. Most
Speaker 1: of everything that is intact of the government is related
Speaker 1: to retail or restaurants. The work isn't that bad. It's
Speaker 1: the expectations for my future that really bothered me about it.
Speaker 1: My dad runs a local hardware story and has been
Speaker 1: able to keep it in business with a loyal customer base,
Speaker 1: even in the pandemic. He's told me since before I
Speaker 1: graduated high school that if I wanted it, I could
Speaker 1: have it. Of course, I'd worked there over the summer
Speaker 1: or on the weekends. It was nice to get the
Speaker 1: money when I was a teenager. But now that I'm
Speaker 1: really coming into adulthood, I want something that's my own.
Speaker 1: I think my parents respected that to a certain point,
Speaker 1: and that point was this year. All this to say,
Speaker 1: I don't really know what I want to do with myself,
Speaker 1: but I do know I want to get out of
Speaker 1: sack Town before I'm thirty. I feel like I might
Speaker 1: go insane if I end up being that type of
Speaker 1: person who never leaves their hometown. Well, ms mr they
Speaker 1: leading career advice. I say, get the hell out of Dodge.
Speaker 1: You know, I think often times when we try to
Speaker 1: figure out what we want in life, sometimes we go
Speaker 1: with the things that we know that we don't want.
Speaker 1: Sometimes making the trim or getting the prone kind of
Speaker 1: defines that. And I can imagine the pressures that you
Speaker 1: feel wanting to keep the family legacy alive. But one
Speaker 1: thing I remember that my mother said on her deathbed.
Speaker 1: She said, don I've already lived my life. It's time
Speaker 1: for you to live yours. The fact that you know
Speaker 1: that you want to get out of Sacktown. Go. There's
Speaker 1: so much out there to experience. And one thing about experiences,
Speaker 1: you can never shrink them. You can never unlearned something
Speaker 1: that you've learned, and you'll realize how big of the
Speaker 1: world out there. And at this point you say, hey, Dawn,
Speaker 1: I don't know what I want to do, but you're
Speaker 1: stepping out there to discovers a way for you to
Speaker 1: find out what it is that you want to do. Now.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you recall but I may mention
Speaker 1: to this on a previous episode about not making decisions
Speaker 1: out of fog, fear, obligation, guilt, You can't see clearly
Speaker 1: that way. How are you deciding your decision on this?
Speaker 1: Are you doing what's best for you? Because right now
Speaker 1: are feeling guilty that you gotta fight fill up to
Speaker 1: what your parents want? Is there a fear that if
Speaker 1: if you don't, they'll think different of you? Is there
Speaker 1: obligation just because perhaps maybe you're the only child and
Speaker 1: if you don't do it, who else will? Well? How
Speaker 1: does that serve you? What do I say? If it
Speaker 1: doesn't serve you, it doesn't deserve you. Now, I've came
Speaker 1: across a few friends and even some people in my
Speaker 1: family who have a family business and potentially thinking about
Speaker 1: inherited I get it, you want to keep the legacy alive,
Speaker 1: You want to keep that going. But what happened to
Speaker 1: living a fulfilling life? What happened to living a life
Speaker 1: in abundance? What happened to knowing what serves you and
Speaker 1: what deserves you? And I know what's going to be scary,
Speaker 1: but you know we're here for a good time and
Speaker 1: not a long time. You gotta live your life on
Speaker 1: purpose and for a purpose. And if that's not serving
Speaker 1: your purpose, what are you doing with it? Why are
Speaker 1: you engaging with it? Why don't you living your life
Speaker 1: full out doing what's gonna make you happy? You know,
Speaker 1: there was a a tweet. I came across it on Instagram.
Speaker 1: Somebody posted it on their close friends feed normalize a
Speaker 1: job being just a job, not a passion or a
Speaker 1: lifestyle or dream career. I like my job, I enjoy
Speaker 1: my team, I have a good boss. But at the
Speaker 1: end of the day, I'm there to make money. So
Speaker 1: you needing a little career advice. It sounds like you're
Speaker 1: looking for something more than just a job. For somebody
Speaker 1: that I say is a common maybe like an everyday person.
Speaker 1: Maybe just going nine to five and just doing a
Speaker 1: one two step that's enough for them. But you've already
Speaker 1: stated you want more. Now. I've read this tweet to
Speaker 1: a few people and some people like, I get, And
Speaker 1: then I'm gonna be honest. I I get with this
Speaker 1: tweet is coming from. But to me, it feels like
Speaker 1: a slow death, or it feels like living and death.
Speaker 1: It's like suffocating for me because I want to live
Speaker 1: my life for a living, you feel me like I
Speaker 1: wanted to be me making money as simple as me breathing.
Speaker 1: It's an everyday flow. I think that's important, and I
Speaker 1: think it's important to realize and discover who you are.
Speaker 1: I said before, from conception, we're told who we should be,
Speaker 1: what we should do, perhaps even encourage who we should become.
Speaker 1: Yet it's not until we truly be who we are
Speaker 1: that we are celebrated. So it's like we're going this
Speaker 1: backwards circle or keep running in a circle, rather expecting
Speaker 1: something different. Thinking if I followed the formula of what
Speaker 1: was told to me, Thinking if I followed the formula
Speaker 1: because it is my birthright, versus let me be the formula,
Speaker 1: be the recipe, get in the kitchen and start throwing
Speaker 1: some flavors together. So when you say, hey, John, what
Speaker 1: should I do? Should I leave out of sack Tel, Yes,
Speaker 1: get the hell out of Dodge. You had the experience
Speaker 1: at the warehouse. That's not enough. That's not what you want,
Speaker 1: So go out there and take a chance on yourself.
Speaker 1: At least if you go out there, you had the
Speaker 1: experience of what it could be like, and that's success
Speaker 1: right there. I think Oftentimes we think of success as
Speaker 1: a means of a destination. That's the living, it's the growing,
Speaker 1: it's the taking a chance, It's the I n G
Speaker 1: in life. It's the growth that's the success. So be
Speaker 1: that success for you. Be that person that said, Hey,
Speaker 1: I want to do something and then do it. Do
Speaker 1: you know how attractive that is? Do you know how
Speaker 1: much self love that is to say that you're going
Speaker 1: to do some something and do it? And oh what
Speaker 1: better love than that? Is? Of consistency? Because what do
Speaker 1: I say? How you do anything? It's how you'll do everything.
Speaker 1: Are you ready to live your life? Truly? You know?
Speaker 1: You say, hey, Dawn, I don't know exactly what it
Speaker 1: is that I want to do. And if we keep
Speaker 1: operating in the space of darkness, that doesn't prohibit our growth.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine how many times you're walking in the
Speaker 1: circle with the lights off when you're gonna cut the
Speaker 1: lights on? Huh, everyone, I'm outiqued and we are investors
Speaker 1: in ten real sellers wine company. You sure the light sharing?
Speaker 1: Subscribed to the writing Indeed with Don Dade podcast wherever
Speaker 1: you get your favorite podcast. Don't be that person looking
Speaker 1: up and you're forty five and you're in the same
Speaker 1: place and it's only going to be more daunting because
Speaker 1: you had a vision for more and whether growing in
Speaker 1: that you're shrunk in it. But it's not uncommon. So
Speaker 1: I think it's interesting how we can look at different
Speaker 1: situations and we play the blame or we we lave,
Speaker 1: we scoff, we we we cackle at other individuals of
Speaker 1: what they've done, just so quick to judge, but not
Speaker 1: necessarily looking at the reflection of what happens when in
Speaker 1: that situation and then discovering that situation. See, we asked
Speaker 1: for this capacity to grow, But then we have to
Speaker 1: ask ourselves are we ready to handle it? You asked
Speaker 1: to get out there and discover. You're wanting to get
Speaker 1: out there to see more at thirty, But do you
Speaker 1: realize that when you're asking to see more, what's out
Speaker 1: of Sacktown is going to require you to take a chance.
Speaker 1: It's going to require you to grow. You heard the proach.
Speaker 1: I asked God to grow and it started raining. Now,
Speaker 1: whether it be actual tears, there's a stretch, there's a pool,
Speaker 1: there's a metamorphosis. There are things that are uncomfortable. So
Speaker 1: when I ask you, do you have the capacity. Part
Speaker 1: of that capacity as you standing up for yourself. Part
Speaker 1: of that capacity is you finding your voice and telling
Speaker 1: your parents and declaring what it is that you want
Speaker 1: for your life, standing bold in that. See, everything that
Speaker 1: you've done right now and how you've chosen to live
Speaker 1: your life has gotten you exactly where you are, and
Speaker 1: that's no judgment. But now you've asked for more. So
Speaker 1: now you're gonna be required to do more. Okay, You're
Speaker 1: gonna be required to take a chance, You're going to
Speaker 1: be required to be uncomfortable. Could it be perhaps this
Speaker 1: moment of growth of you finding your voice and declaring
Speaker 1: to your parents that perhaps this isn't what you want
Speaker 1: to do, which is going to propel you to discover
Speaker 1: what it is that you do want to do. And
Speaker 1: can you imagine that joy and that piece of just
Speaker 1: being happy. I'm not talking about no job that's just
Speaker 1: anount of five that you don't care about your boss
Speaker 1: and you dare to make money. I'm talking about living
Speaker 1: your life on purpose before with a purpose, with passion
Speaker 1: that you don't even just view it as a job,
Speaker 1: you just view it as a living. But see, in
Speaker 1: order for you to get to that space. You're gonna
Speaker 1: have to open your mouth. Isn't it interesting that we
Speaker 1: ask for things? Yet sometimes I don't know if we
Speaker 1: do the full evaluation process to wonder or figure out
Speaker 1: or discover if we have the capacity to hold it. So, um,
Speaker 1: you that's needing a little career advice. I guess I
Speaker 1: have to ask you the question, are you ready to grow?
Speaker 1: Are you ready to be amazing? Are you ready to
Speaker 1: be great? You know I said this quote. I said
Speaker 1: this to myself always at them because I said I
Speaker 1: want to be great, And I say, hey, this is
Speaker 1: me talking to myself. I said, you want to be great?
Speaker 1: And they say, you know, if you want to be great,
Speaker 1: you have to do things that great people do, and
Speaker 1: great people do things that everyday people don't do. So Dawn,
Speaker 1: do you want to be great? So Mr? Mrs They
Speaker 1: a little career advice letter? I have to ask you,
Speaker 1: do you want to be great? Do you want to
Speaker 1: live your life on purpose and for a purpose? Find

Speaker 1: with it. You said what you wanted. You said, I
Speaker 1: want to get more. You said, I want to get
