What if the life you're dreaming about isn't something you have to chase, but someone you're meant to become?
In this inspiring conversation, Marci sits down with visionary leader, author, and Decade Game creator Carolyn Buck Luce to explore a powerful shift in perspective: instead of living from your past or your fears, what if you started living from your future?
Carolyn shares how a vivid imagination, a deep sense of purpose, and the courage to think beyond today's limitations have guided every chapter of her extraordinary life; from serving as a diplomat in the Soviet Union during the Cold War to leading billion-dollar organizations and helping thousands of women design lives of greater meaning, impact, and joy.
You'll discover why your future self may already hold the wisdom you're searching for today, how neuroscience supports thinking a decade ahead, and why creating your life by design, instead of by default, can change everything.
In this episode, you'll discover:
● Why your future self may be your greatest guide
● The surprising neuroscience behind thinking 10 years ahead
● How imagining your future can quiet fear and expand possibility
● The difference between your purpose and your mission—and why knowing both matters ● Why ""no"" doesn't have to mean never
● How to begin creating your life by design instead of default
● The powerful question that can help you uncover your unique purpose
● Why your biggest dreams may actually be too small
● How one tiny step today can begin transforming your entire future
● Carolyn's inspiring Decade Game and how it helps people create extraordinary lives with intention
Whether you're entering a new season of life, searching for greater clarity, or simply wondering what's next, this conversation will inspire you to trust that your future is already calling and that every choice you make today can become a step toward the life you're meant to live.
