Harvesting Wisdom & The Seasons of Change

Welcome to The Cory Lee Show, where we focus on building leaders and transforming culture.
In today's episode, Cory dives into the concept of "Seasons of Change" and the importance of understanding the season of life you're currently in. 
Drawing insights from entrepreneurial thinkers like Jack Dorsey and motivational speaker Jim Rohn, Cory emphasizes the need for wisdom and discernment in an age where distinguishing between the real and fake is becoming increasingly difficult. He highlights how champions handle the pressure of expectations differently than underdogs, and encourages listeners to embrace the challenges that come with each season.
Using the analogy of the four seasons - winter, spring, summer, and fall - Cory explains how our lives mirror these natural cycles. He stresses the significance of learning to handle the difficult "winters" of life without letting them define us, and being prepared to seize opportunities when "springtime" arrives.
Cory also discusses the true sign of maturity: being able to handle both meager and plentiful harvests with grace and humility.
Throughout the episode, Cory emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, personal growth, and maintaining a strong connection with God. He reminds listeners that they were made to tackle challenges head-on and that every season, whether difficult or abundant, presents an opportunity for growth and transformation.
So join us as we explore the Seasons of Change and discover how to navigate life's ups and downs with wisdom, resilience, and faith.
