Ep 8 - Overcoming expectations to live out your purpose with Tim Sae Koo

Shownotes At the age of 5, Tim Sae Koo proudly declared to his mom that he wanted to be the first Asian American President of the United States. He was on track to achieve this until he realized that politics wasn't efficient enough for him. That's when he discovered the world of entrepreneurship.  After bootstrapping and successfully exiting his first tech startup (TINT) in Silicon Valley at age 27, Tim went on a journey to heal, reset, and let go of the limiting beliefs he had picked up along the way including the need to create to prove himself (rather than creating from love).  Today, he is putting his many super powers to work as the Chief Manifestation Officer and a Partner of 1heart, an organization focused on supporting and empowering heart-driven leaders. He's also an ecstatic dance DJ, avid meditator, and plant medicine enthusiast. In this episode, we talk about Tim's journey and some of the tools that are supporting his transformation. We talk about overcoming expectations of the people who love us most, how Tim defines his purpose and how he continues to course correct in order stay true to himself.    #PurposePlays from this episode: Mediate or journal in response to the question: What do I want to create? (Imagine you had all the time, money, and energy in the world.) If you are taking time off to travel or in between work, set clear intentions for what you want to get out of this time and find a way to remind yourself of these intentions frequently. (Tim wore a piece of jewelry that served this purpose).   If you are making some big changes in your life and are worried that those close to you may not understand, approach the conversation without any expectations. Share your decision or your passion openly, but don't put pressure on the other person to jump on board right away. Give them time and show (rather than tell) them how this new direction is benefiting you.     Links @timsaekoo (Instagram) www.youtube.com/user/tsaekoo https://www.1heart.com/
