This is Season 1, Episode 1 of the I Am A Creator documentary series about why the future belongs to creators. For more visit https://convertkit.com/stories.
It would be great if we could chase our dreams without any outside input. But for some reason, there is always input. Sometimes it’s life-giving, like receiving the well-timed encouragement of a friend (or stranger) at exactly the same moment you were thinking about giving up. But other times, it’s crushing. Not everyone always sees the possibilities we see. Not everyone understands our dreams.
But does that mean we should change our dreams? Or worse, stop chasing them at all?
Watch what happened when Gloria Atanmo dared to chase a dream beyond expectations.

I cannot express enough how much I absolutely love this woman or explain just how much she has affected my life, given me encouragement and inspiration, or said just the right words, that she gets it, "For I've been there." Her words, her smile, her joy, her magic has helped me to survive, and thrive, during some of the darkest days of my life. It was Glo who gave me hope.
I watched this video years ago when it first came out, and again today, watching it still fills me with hope and inspiration!!
