Twin Chat with S&K

In this bonus episode, I (Steph Kafoury) am interviewed  by Entrepreneurs in the Spotlight. I talk about my coaching practice focusing on how dreams really do come true and how to embrace your true self and become extraordinary. 
What if dreams really do come true? What would that mean for you? What if you could remove the limiting obstacles? We start each day with a blank slate – we don’t know what will happen. Instead of reactively going down the same path in life you have the choice to open your eyes and see new possibilities.
I challenge the viewers to DREAM BIG and notice the the thoughts and feelings that limit us: "I could never do that" = feeling of fear and doubt. And how those thoughts affect the actions/inaction you take and thereby the results you achieve. And how when you have awareness of these thoughts you have the choice to change your thoughts: "I can do this, my dreams come true" = feeling of optimism and confidence. And this leads to taking action in the direction of achieving your dreams! 

Being normal isn’t amazing – we want to be normal, so we’ll be accepted and “liked.”  When we embrace our true selves and stop worrying about what other’s will think, we become extraordinary. And extraordinary people change the world.

Enjoy!
xo,
Steph

We talk with Susanne (Kenan's dear college friend who Steph became fast friends with too) about starting the Vail mind Center, a pediatric behavioral and mental health center,  in Vail Colorado.  We talk about her journey as an artist, an art teacher and an art therapist - as well as being a mom of 3! She opens up and tells us what motivated her to start the Center.  She has a child with special needs and they were having difficulties finding clinicians and resources in her community. She and her husband worked together to turn their  dream into a reality. They have 8 clinicians and service the greater Vail area. Susanne works as an art therapist at the Center. Our chat is truly inspiring as we hear how her family's personal need  turned into a much bigger endeavor that's helping and serving children in her community.
