Dream Big: My Story

In this episode of “The 3 R’s Podcast,” Nathaly Marcus and Lorena Ochoa invite us to explore the art of dreaming big and finding a balance between competence, mental and physical health, and enjoyment of life. Discover how mental strength and personal connections are key to achieving our goals without losing sight of the pleasure every step of the way.

The Power of Dreaming Big and Finding Balance

Dreaming big is a gift we all deserve. since we were little, we have often had enormous dreams, desires that drive us to be better and reach new heights. As we grow up, life teaches us that these dreams are not only possible, but necessary to give us direction and motivation. However, we also learn that the path to them is not always as easy as we imagine.

For many women, competition and the chance to represent their country, community or family are the driving forces behind their passion. The idea of being the best in any facet of life is a noble dream, but it can sometimes be overwhelming. This is where the power of mindset comes into play. Yes! That inner strength that allows us to master adrenaline and stand firm under pressure. It is a constant reminder that success is not only built with physical effort, but also with a solid mental focus.

Often, when we reach a goal, we realize that reality is more complex than we expected. This can lead to emotional fatigue that surpasses physical fatigue. It is at these times when taking care of our mental and physical health becomes crucial. A balanced diet, which includes pleasure and enjoyment (because what would life be without desserts!) combined with movement and exercise, is essential to maintain the balance we so long for.

Finding our calling and giving it our best shot can be one life´s greatest pleasures. In this process, it is vital to learn to listen to our inner voice, be honest with ourselves and recognize what is right for each of us. It is not easy, but it is a journey that is worthwhile. Each step we take brings us closer to our true self, to that version of ourselves that is not afraid to dream, learn and grow.

Perfection can be a heavy burden. Being perfectionists can make it difficult to fully enjoy life. That´s why it´s essential to learn to lower our standards, be more flexible, and have more fun. Life is a constant balance between being firm and gentle, between leading with strength and learning with humility.

The relationships and connections we form also play a crucial role in our well-being. Support from family, friendships, and meaningful relationships are the lifelines that propel us forward. At the end of the day, each of us has our own formula, our own path. Comparing ourselves to others only distracts us from what really matters: our personal growth and happiness.

So keep dreaming, keep growing, and above all, keep enjoying the journey. Because true success is not just about reaching the goal, but about enjoying every step of the way.
