The Everyday Millionaire

In this episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany explore the theme “Come Alive in 2025,” reflecting on the importance of living with intention and aligning with one’s core values as the new year begins. They revisit the transformative concept “clarity equals velocity” from 2024, emphasizing how clarity can propel growth in personal and professional relationships.

The episode delves into the role of values in decision-making, highlighting how compromising one’s core values often leads to dissatisfaction and misalignment. Patrick and Steffany discuss the dangers of living according to “shoulds” or societal expectations, which can erode authenticity and strain relationships. They urge listeners to identify their own values and live in integrity, noting that resilience and fulfillment stem from honoring what truly matters to you.

A significant part of the conversation focuses on the seven pillars of life: physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, financial, vocational, and relational fitness. The duo distinguishes between fitness—the active pursuit of growth—and wellness—a balanced, sustainable state. They share examples, such as financial fitness versus financial wellness, to illustrate how intentional focus can prepare individuals to navigate challenges while fostering resilience.

Patrick and Steffany also reflect on how past adversity, such as the pandemic, has underscored the importance of preparation and adaptability. Whether it’s mental resilience, financial stability, or spiritual grounding, they stress the need for self-awareness and readiness in a rapidly changing world. Practical advice, like maintaining emotional balance and preparing for uncertainties, ties the discussion to actionable steps.

The episode concludes with a call to “come alive” by embracing one’s values, facing adversity with courage, and striving for holistic fitness across life’s domains. As Steffany notes, it’s about standing firm in your truth amidst the chaos—a foundational step toward thriving in the year ahead.
