But I was the common denominator.

So I had a moment to reflect and I was just like, oh man, there's something wrong with me because I'm at the root.

I'm the common denominator of all these broken relationships.

I can't point the finger at everyone.

Something is happening where I don't have the emotional skills or I don't have the tools.

I'm not creating boundaries or I'm out of alignment with something.

And that became a journey of going through as much emotional intelligence training, workshops, therapies, coaching for the last 13 years as possible.

And that's when I launched the show.

I launched the show 13 years ago because I was like,

Okay, I've accomplished success, but I don't have greatness in my life.

Like I've accomplished things, but I don't feel great.

I don't feel good.

So what's wrong with me?

Let me go ask the experts.

Let me humble myself.

And stop being a cocky 20-something-year-old thinking I've got to figure it out.

And let me humble myself and bring in the true leaders of the world, people with wisdom, experience, research like yourself and say, teach me.

And through learning, let me share with others and try to help others who are going through a simpler struggle around personal challenges, finance, health, relationships, whatever it might be.

So the last 13 years has been a dynamic of me being the guinea pig of struggle and saying, all right, I'm going to try to be the best version of myself that I can be.

I'm going to try to draw my wisest version of my future self to me now.
