info_outlineWe’re living through one of the most profound transitions in human history. With AI projected to disrupt or replace over 300 million jobs globally and 75% of the global workforce rethinking their careers, it’s no wonder that 1 in every 3 Americans has already undergone a major life change in recent years.
This reckoning has created a pivotal moment in which fear, uncertainty, and doubt about the future are becoming increasingly prevalent. When life feels uncertain or misaligned, having a clear and compelling vision can be the anchor that pulls you forward. And today’s episode is all about crafting a spiritual vision, not just a set of goals, but vision that pulls you toward your biggest goals… even when life feels out of control.
Jennifer Hudye is the founder of Vision Driven, where she helps entrepreneurs, CEOs, leaders and changemakers craft, clarify, and connect to their compelling vision of the future. She's a gifted speaker who has taken the stage at TEDx, Mindvalley, and EO, to name a few. She has worked with renowned thought leaders, including Tony Robbins, Joe Polish, Dan Sullivan, and many others. And as you’ll hear, her passion for helping others to take control and design a life they love shines brightly.
In our conversation, Jennifer guides us through the five essential steps to crafting a spiritual vision, starting with self-honesty and culminating with becoming the version of yourself who can bring it to life. You’ll learn how to suspend the “how,” what to do when fear blocks your clarity, and why vision is more than just a mental tool—it’s a way to partner with God (or your higher power) to co-create a life aligned with your purpose.
