DB 258: Rebecca Zamolo, Youtuber Extraordinaire, On Why Awkward Moments Make Her Happy!
23:39 | Episode: 258 | June 28th, 2021

We were thrilled when Rebecca Zamolo’s publicist reached out to see if Eva was interested in interviewing Rebecca, who is promoting her new book “The Game Master: Summer Schooled.”  Rebecca is one of the most innovative content creators in the world, with multiple award winning Youtube channels with over 30 million subscribers.  She also has had a fascinating life story, as Eva discovered while preparing for the interview. Rebecca was a competitive gymnast growing up, which is where she developed her incredible work ethic.  She also studied Improv at Second City in Los Angeles, which is where she blossomed into a comedic actress.   Everything Rebecca does is entertaining and will make you smile, including her interview with Eva 🙂  Be sure to check out Rebecca’s new book The Game Master: Summer Schooled!   For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/258

DB 257: Let The Paint Dry! (especially when you are overwhelmed)
07:08 | Episode: 257 | June 21st, 2021

Daniel J. Watts is a legendary Broadway performer, appearing in nine Broadway shows including Hamilton, In The Hnines and Memphis.  So it should be no surprise that Daniel used performance art when he delivered his recent TedX talk.  He literally painted with his feet while masterfully sharing his life experience leading up to and during the pandemic.  Daniel uses the metaphor of paint, sharing that in life sometimes we need to let the paint dry.  We need to take a break, assess the situation, and then make the next move.  With the pandemic cancelling Broadway shows for the past year, Daniel was forced to let the paint dry and now plans to be more conscious of intentionally letting the paint dry in the future.  Eva shares how she is implementing Daniel’s advice in her own life and why this is such a powerful metaphor to remember whenever you feel overwhelmed or stressed.  Thank you Daniel J. Watts for your inspiring and creative TedX talk!  For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/257

DB 256: What Did You Fail At This Week? GREAT Question!
06:57 | Episode: 256 | June 14th, 2021

Sara Blakely is an inventor and entrepreneur who created the clothing line Spanx.  For the younger Big Dreamers who may not be familiar with Spanx, ask your mom because chances are she knows and can explain better than Eva can! Joking aside, with the incredible success of Spanx under Sara’s leadership, in 2012 Sara became the world’s youngest female self-made billionaire.  In today’s episode, Eva focuses on an amazing story that Sara shared about her father in an interview with the great Tony Robbins.  Specifically, Sara explained that when she was growing up, her father would ask her “What did you fail at this week?”  And he would be disappointed if she did not have anything to share!  Now that may seem like a backwards question, but actually Sara credits this ritual with obliterating her fear of failure in the traditional sense of failing to achieve the desired outcome.  Instead, Sara’s definition of failure became failing to try her best. What a fantastic lesson for all Big Dreamers – young and old!  When you are pursuing a big dream, you will “fail” time and again. But rather than hide or be ashamed by those failures, we should share and even celebrate the failures as long as we tried our best!  Thank you Sara for this powerful reminder and kudos to your dad for asking you such a fantastic question during your childhood.   For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/256

DB 255: Pity Party? No thank you!
07:14 | Episode: 255 | June 7th, 2021

Candace Parker is one of the most decorated female basketball players to ever put on a uniform. Candace was the first overall pick in the 2008 WNBA Draft,  A WNBA Champion, WNBA Finals MVP, 2x WNBA MVP, 2x Gold Medalist, and WNBA Rookie of the Year. But that incedibe legacy was definitely not guaranteed, and in fact could have easily been cut short by a devastating ACL tear during high school that required surgery to repair.  In a recent interview, Candace was asked about what it took to develop her winning mindset, and she actually pointed to that injury and her road to recovery as the time in her life that she developed the tenacity to overcome obstacles. Specifically, Candice shared that after a doctor told her that she may never play basketball again, her Dad challenged her to look at herself in the mirror and make a decision to fully recover rather than throw a pity party.  We’ve all had the tendency to throw a pity party when things go terribly wrong, but at the end of the day feeling bad for ourselves and complaining about the situation is never a solution.  Thank you Candace for the reminder to rsvp NO to the pity party and instead pour your energy into overcoming the obstacles in the path to your big dreams.  For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/255

DB 254: Push (A Tad Bit) Outside Of Your Comfort Zone
07:53 | Episode: 254 | May 31st, 2021

We were listening to Lewis Howes interview Rich Roll, a man who transformed his life from being an alcoholic and drug addict to one of the fittest men in the world.  Lewis was asking Rich about how to achieve your big dreams.  Rather than just giving the stereotypical answer like “you have to go for it, be bold, take massive action,” Rich gave a much more practical answer that Eva thought was super helpful and wanted to share with all the Big Dreamers.  Specifically, Rich shared that when you push outside of your comfort zone, the best strategy is to just push a tad bit outside.  Start with an action today that doesn’t involve a lot of risk.  You need to get outside of the comfort zone because that is where growth happens, but you can start small, build your confidence, and then take an additional step.  Eva applies Rich’s lesson to her own experience as a podcaster, and how her growth these past 5 years has come from many little steps outside of her comfort zone rather than one huge one.  Thank you Rick for this very practical advice, and reminder that Big Dreams don’t happen overnight but require incremental progress over a long period of time!    For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/254

DB 253: A LITTLE Thing That Makes A BIG Difference
07:07 | Episode: 235 | May 24th, 2021

This week’s episode is inspired by Amberley Snyder, who as a young girl developed a love of horses and was on her way to becoming one of the world’s best in rodeo.  In 2009, she won the National Little Britches Rodeo Association All-Around Cowgirl World Championship.  Amberley’s life changed forever on January 10, 2010.   She was driving her truck and sadly not wearing a seatbelt.  She took her eyes off the road for a brief moment and the next thing she knew her car was rolling and she was ejected from the vehicle and ended up breaking her neck, leaving her paralzyed from the waist down.  Instead of giving up on her passion for horses and the idea of riding again, Amberley told her doctors that she would ride a horse again and even compete in rodeo.  And only 4 months after the accident, Amberley was back on her horse and ultimately realized her dream of competing in rodeos.   In this episode, Eva shares Amberley’s story and a quote that Amberley says changed her life forever: “Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.”  Please be sure to watch the video we link in the resources section of our show notes. It will give you goosebumps to see Amberley hoist herself onto her horse from a wheelchair, and ride strapped to her horse in rodeo competitions. Thank you Amberley for being such a powerful example of the power of attitude, and how that little decision we make every morning makes all the difference.  For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/253

DB 252: Take Pride In Your CHOICES, Not Your GIFTS!
07:59 | Episode: 252 | May 17th, 2021

Jeff Bezos was once asked what makes someone successful.  Jeff is uniquely qualified to answer this question, considering he founded ecommerce giant Amazon.com and is one of the wealthiest people on the planet. In this episode, Eva shares Jeff’s response which to paraphrase was that successful people have a combination of gifts (e.g. natural-born talent) and a strong work ethic (e.g. the grit to develop those talents). Jeff further explained that we can celebrate our gifts, but we should not be proud of them.  Instead we should take pride in the choice we make to work hard and become the best versions of ourselves. Eva could not agree more, and shares some examples of friends and a past guest who exemplify this combination of gifts + work ethic.  Thank you to Jeff Bezos for making this eye-opening distinction, which Eva can now share with all the Big Dreamers!   For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/252

DB 251: Be The Author Of Your Own Story
07:39 | Episode: 251 | May 10th, 2021

This week’s episode is inspired by Amy Purdy.  Amy’s childhood and teen years were filled with fun and adventure. She was an incredible athlete and especially loved snowboarding.  At the age of 19, Amy had a medical emergency caused by a bacterial infection.  The doctors gave her a 2% chance to live, and had to remove her spleen and amputate both her legs below the knees. Her father also had to donate a kidney to give her a chance to survive.  Needless to say, it was a very scary time for the Purdy family and life as Amy knew it would never be the same.  In this episode, Eva shares Amy’s analogy of how after this emergency, she made a decision to look at her life as a book where she would be the author of that book and write an incredible story.  Which is exactly what she has done!  Eva shares many of Amy’s remarkable accomplishments, including winning Paralympic medals in snowboarding, being the runner-up on Dancing With The Stars, touring with Oprah, and becoming a New York Times best-selling  author.  Amy can inspire all Big Dreamers, especially those going through difficult times, to be the author of their own story.  Thank you Amy for inspiring millions and now all the Big Dreamers.  We can’t wait to read the next chapters in your incredible life 🙂   For our show notes, visit DreamBigPodcast.com/251
