RAISE Mindset and Performance

“The people who bullied me later became my friends… because I had already gone before them.”

This moment from Dr. Yvette Rice stayed with me.

Not because it ignores the pain of those experiences — but because it shows what empathy can look like after adversity.

Sometimes the people who seem against us are navigating fear and uncertainty too.

Sometimes the barriers we face early in life prepare us for the ones we’ll face later.

For Dr. Yvette Rice LLVE, LLC, becoming the first Black cheerleader at her high school during integration became the beginning of a much bigger journey through engineering, leadership, and purpose.

This episode is about more than overcoming obstacles.
It’s about understanding your capability before the world gives you permission.

“What if the plan isn’t the point?”
Most people choose a path trying to guarantee an outcome.
But life doesn’t work like that.

➡️ Build your capability.
➡️ Learn how to think.
➡️ Stay open to where it leads.

Because the path rarely looks how you imagined.

My dad used me as his cover story 🕵️‍♂️ 😅

At 13 years old, most of us were worried about middle school. Anker Heegaard was busy being the literal "cover story" that saved his father from a gunpoint interrogation in the foothills of Afghanistan.

This story is wild, but it’s also a masterclass in what it means to live an "analog" life—where uncertainty isn't something to fear, but something to navigate.

We are on a mission to share more of these incredible stories of resilience. We are so close to our first goal of 100 subscribers! If this story gripped you, help us get there by hitting that follow button and sharing this with one person who needs to hear it.

“Is it optimism… or ignorance?”

Sometimes the same mindset that pushes you forward…
can it also hold you back. 🧐

🗣️ When your identity becomes one thing… what happens when that’s gone?

For a long time, everything around Eric J. Klenofsky was built on one label — “the goalkeeper.”

It builds confidence…

▶️ but it can also make that confidence fragile.

Because when the role changes…

▶️ you’re forced to figure out who you are beyond it.

There’s a point in a lot of journeys where the focus shifts.

Not always intentionally… but it moves from:
getting better → to achieving something.

▶️ College Scholarship.
▶️ MLS Draft.
▶️ Professional Title.

And once you get there… there can be a drop.

Why? Maybe the motivation was tied to the outcome —not the process. 🧐

This part of the conversation with Eric Klenofsky really stood out to me.

It’s not just a soccer thing. It’s something I think a lot of us go through.

What are we actually chasing?

We all have that one family member... 😂

In our family, we call it "Greer Mode." It’s that unstoppable state of mind where Mom walks into your house and immediately starts fixing the layout of a room she doesn't even live in. There is no in-between: you either have 0 energy or you are going 100 miles per hour!

Tune into the newest episode of Embracing The Journey, Living Beyond Limits to hear the full breakdown of Greer Mode.
