Hey Reader,

Happy FriYAYYYYY! 🎉

I hope this week has been full of inspiration, reflection, and maybe even a few moments that reminded you just how powerful you are in shaping your future.

The intention for today's JOYrney Mail™ is to remind you of the power you possess as you CREATE history – letting go of the past, and living in FULL pursuit of the VISION ahead. Let's dive in!

But first... let’s be real—big, bold changes? They can be terrifying. 😅

Recently, I made a decision that felt equally exciting and nerve-wracking: I’m stepping fully into a space I’ve been deeply passionate about for years—healthcare and maternal health.

Now, before you ask—No, I’m not becoming a doctor! 😂 But as someone who just gave birth a few months ago, I felt firsthand the difference it makes to have nurses and doctors who are healthy, whole, and fulfilled in their careers—not just overworked and exhausted.

My Labor & Delivery Nurse, Melissa, was a blessing during my birth experience, and it made me realize: this is where I want to make an impact. While I’ve spent the past four years building a business in one direction, my heart is pulling me toward creating more JOY for those who care for us.

But here’s the thing: Writing this down in my journal was one thing. Saying it out loud? Committing to it on paper (or on LinkedIn 😬)? That was terrifying.

So I did something different…

​

A New Way to Approach Big, Scary Goals

This year, instead of my usual vision board, I tried something new — Vision Bingo! And it changed everything.

Rather than listing out rigid goals (which, let’s be honest, can feel overwhelming), I created a BINGO-style grid filled with fun experiences, habits, and milestones—some personal, some professional, and all designed to stretch me out of my comfort zone.

Here’s how I structured mine:
🟡 (B)usiness
🟡 (I)ntimacy
🟡 (N)ew Things
🟡 (G)o! (adventures, experiences, & travel)
🟡 (O)ther (miscellaneous fun goals!)

And you know what? Seeing my big, scary goals in a format that felt fun and exciting made it WAY easier to commit.

​

What’s Your “Scary” Goal?

We all have something that feels too big, too uncertain, or just too different from what we’ve been doing. But what if you approached it in a way that felt playful instead of stressful?

So I’m inviting you to try this:

💡 Make your own Vision Bingo!​
🎯 Fill it with experiences, milestones, and habits that light you up.
✨ Most importantly—make sure some of them scare you!

And if you do try it, I’d love to see it! Tag me online (@EricaLasan on LinkedIn, Instagram, and TikTok) or just hit reply and share your thoughts.
