How to blow up your comfort zone
If you’ve ever felt stuck, unmotivated, or like you’re just going through the motions—
this episode will give you a completely different way to approach change.
Not by blowing up your life.
Not by waiting for rock bottom.
But by doing small, intentional actions—on purpose—week by week.
I sat down with five regular, busy people—with jobs, families, and full plates—who took the leap a year ago, and spent the last year doing exactly that.
Over the course of the year, each one completed fifty-plus 7-day challenges that they personally selected to stretch themselves—mentally, emotionally, creatively, physically, and spiritually.
One week they gave up their vices.
The next, they wrote poetry.
Then they took cold showers.
Had scary conversations.
Did stand-up comedy.
Tried fasting.
Experimented with forgiveness.
And much more…

In this episode, you’ll hear what worked, what didn’t, what shifted, and how they grew. And more importantly, you’ll learn:
How to build momentum without needing motivation
What small challenges reveal about your excuses, identity, and habits
How to stretch yourself without abandoning your responsibilities
Why transformation isn’t about doing more—but being more honest
And how to keep growing—even when life gets busy, messy, or uncertain

If you’ve been waiting for the right time to change… I have a feeling that this conversation will inspire you to (finally) take the leap.
To your growth,
Light
