Here in the I Heart My Life community, we are all about becoming the best version of ourselves, whether that means becoming the best business owner we want to be, or the best parent, or the best spouse.

But of course, with next-level growth and high ambition, can come with a lot of pressure, emotion and challenge.

This week’s guest, the brilliant Destinee Berman has overcome so much to get to where she is today…but through it all, she’s kept going.

Destinee is a supermom, an amazing woman, a successful entrepreneur and business owner who overcame generations of family programming and the drive to survive.

One of the things I admire most about her, is how she’s reinvented herself many times over. She’s also a bad-a$$ when it comes to business and marketing.

“Being driven by fear, and being driven by this need to just make it will only take you so far. And so you know, in this range of doing something for joy, doing something for fun, doing something because I just want to, it has never really been in my world for most of my life. And so the fear is there because you feel like the rug will always be pulled underneath you.” – Destinee Berman

And today on the Show, she’s here to share how to start a business (and pivot if you’re no longer aligned), the secrets to upleveling, why it’s important to be driven by desire and not fear, and more.

Are you ready? Because I know I am!

Let’s dive in.

Quotes:

“I’m learning what I need to say ‘no’ to and what I need to say ‘yes’ to, and learning how to build teams and systems so that I can have the kind of company that I want, and so also be the mom and the spouse that I want to be.” – Destinee Berman

“Being [a child of] immigrants and having to survive, that has been instilled in me for better or worse. And so this drive, this ambition, I do believe that some of it is intrinsic.” – Destinee Berman

“Being driven by fear, and being driven by this need to just make it will only take you so far. And so you know, in this range of doing something for joy, doing something for fun, doing something because I just want to, it has never really been in my world for most of my life. And so the fear is there because you feel like the rug will always be pulled underneath you.” – Destinee Berman

“The message that I’ve always received [from my parents] is ‘You don’t have freedom unless you have your own business.’” – Destinee Berman 

“I do feel like I still have so much more potential and possibility to fulfill […] There is that inner critic, for better or worse, that I know, I have more potential, more possibility to expand on. And there has been an intrinsic grit that has been learned, and my ambition.” – Destinee Berman

If you’re truly ready to create a life better than your dreams, then it’s time to talk about the concept of visualization. What is visualization? It’s when you paint a picture in your mind of what you want your life to LOOK like, but also, focus on the other senses too to make it as […]

Have you felt for some time that you’re meant for something big, something better, deeper, or more meaningful than you have right now? And yet… are you unable to see with complete clarity what that would look like because you feel so disconnected from yourself and Source? Perhaps you long for a different life… to […]

Do you remember the last time your life took a total 180?  Perhaps it was the time you moved to a brand new home (or city), welcomed a new family member, or quit your full-time job to finally pursue your true passion. Or maybe it was a more sudden, shocking, or sad type of change, […]
