Headlines have been loud, messy, and heavy—and that’s exactly why we open with clarity about what’s harmful, what’s not reflective of authentic faith, and why naming truth matters for our personal growth. From there, we shift the lens to the battles closer to home: the tug-of-war between who we were, who we say we want to be, and the choices that actually move us forward.

We also ask the harder questions: Are your goals truly yours, or are they auditions for other people’s approval? If you’re an orange, why submit to apples-to-apples comparisons? We talk boundaries, unique standards, and the courage to avoid crab-bucket traps that pull you back into comfort and conformity. Mindset sits at the core. Most people change desires and even values before they change behavior; flipping that script requires a renewed mind, tighter inputs, and proof through daily practice. Purpose sharpens when your actions align with identity, not applause.

If you’re ready to trade vague hopes for clear steps—and to choose the narrow path that leads to real life—this one’s for you. Listen, share with a friend who needs a reset, and tell us the one specific

Purpose shouldn’t be a whisper under the noise—it should be the compass that sets your direction. We open with a quick update and gratitude for our community, then get straight to the heart of the matter: why the world keeps de‑emphasizing purpose and how that quiet drift costs us our time, freedom, and joy. Together we challenge the shallow questions—Is this worth it? Should I be doing this?—and replace them with a better one: does this move me closer to my end game or pull me away?

We unpack the hard truth about “furniture” in our lives—habits, expectations, and distractions that feel permanent because we’ve stopped confronting them. You’ll hear a simple decision filter that helps you say no without guilt, plus a candid look at why chasing recognition or empire-building often leaves you busy but misaligned. If you’ve ever wondered why success can feel like a golden cage, we talk about the time‑freedom tradeoff and how purpose realigns your work with your values.

From there we get practical. We explore the role of mentors, the power of disciplined habits, and why miracles tend to meet people in motion rather than on the couch. Expect direct questions you can apply today: define your end game in plain words, remove one fixture that steals focus, and pick a mentor whose habits you’ll copy for 30 days. The goal isn’t a motivational spike—it’s sustainable direction, the kind that lets you decline good offers to protect your best work.

If you’re ready to move from average to aligned, from noise to clarity, hit play and take one brave step today. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a review telling us the one distraction you’re confronting this week. Your next yes starts with a better why.

Hey, Friends and Family.

Even in the months of the podcast season when things are slow, we got content for you. Our team thought it a great idea to start reviewing previous (but timely) episodes of our show during the times that Mista Yu is away from the microphone. All of these episodes (or beautiful Blasts from the Past) were previously broadcasted but we are sharing them with you for a time that you might need it most. Hope you enjoy!

I don't know if you can see it but it seems like people are struggling with knowing what and who to invest in. We make bad decisions in business, in relationships, in family, and for our own personal growth. Let's pivot together!

Mr. Yu explores the concept of influence, examining how the voices we allow into our lives shape our decisions, identity, and ultimate destiny. Through the lens of the Cherokee parable of two wolves, he unpacks how our choices about what we feed—negativity or positivity—determine which aspects of ourselves grow stronger.

• The power of external influences in our lives, from social media "influencers" to friends and family
• How the Cherokee parable of two wolves illustrates our internal battle between positive and negative qualities
• Why we often invest the least in ourselves despite spending more time with ourselves than anyone else
• The difference between treating yourself and truly investing in your potential and purpose
• Five practical steps to begin investing in yourself: assess your capital, don't waste time, guard your gates, be ready to replant, and identify the thief
• How comfort becomes the thief that robs us of our potential
• The importance of saying "no" and avoiding the tyranny of the urgent
• Why the words we speak have tremendous power to create or destroy possibilities
