Now And Next
🎙✨ NOW AND NEXT 👣✨ 🔥✨What if the real breakthrough isn’t fixing your past… but showing up for the person right in front of you? This week’s episode, with Marco Vega called the Now And Next, dives into a mindset that’s been reshaping my own life: 👣✨ ✔️ Do what you can with the NOW you’ve been given ✔️ Stay ready for the NEXT person you can impact 👣✨ I sat down with Marco Vega music industry pro, part-time story listener, and the self-proclaimed “bad boy of Music Row” 😎🎸. Behind the swagger is someone who "really" sees people. Someone who knows how to sit in the heavy stuff without rushing to fix it. 👣✨ We dig into questions we’re "all" wrestling with: 💔 Why are we more connected digitally yet lonelier than ever? 📞 Who’s your 911 person the one you call when life collapses? 😋 Why “don’t yuck someone else’s yum” might be the most underrated life rule 🏝️ And yes… what Tom Hanks and Wilson still teach us about connection 👣✨ Marco also shares what he’s doing with "Loqui", a human-to-human listening platform giving people real conversation, real presence, and real support 24/7. 🗣❤️ 👣✨ If you’ve been craving deeper connection, a fresh way to think about purpose, or just a reminder that your presence still matters… this one’s going to land. 👣✨ 👣✨ #NowAndNext #OtherPeoplesShoes #HungrySeason #LoquiListening #ActiveListening #HumanConnection #BePresent #ImpactOne #NextRightThing #PodcastEpisode #DeepConversations #DontYuckTheYum #MusicRow #EmpathyMatters
🎙✨ NOW AND NEXT
🧩 Season Theme: HungryyAs we enter the home stretch of this season, the conversations get even more honest. “Hungry” has always been about the things we long forrconnection, clarity, purposeeand this episode lands right in that space..Most of us spend too much time wishing we could rewrite the past..However, in this episode leans into a mindset shift called “the now and the next.”
It’s about asking two simple but powerful questions:
What can I do with the now that’s right in front of me?
And who is the next person I can impact in a meaningful way?
It’s presence and purpose staying grounded in today while staying open to who might need you tomorrow.
