What do you really want in life?

It’s one of the hardest questions we can face—personally, professionally, spiritually, and financially. And if you don’t have an immediate answer, that’s OK. Most of us don’t. But that’s where the real work begins.

In this episode of The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas, Kelly unpacks the question his friend Mirko asked him that shook him to the core: “What do you want?” That moment led him to Proverbs 23—a passage that doesn’t hand us answers, but instead gives us the framework to discover them.

You’ll hear how chasing money, fame, or the food of this world will never satisfy the hunger of the spirit—and how seeking wise counsel, applying discipline, and spending time with God aligns your heart, mind, and skills. When we guard our hearts and live from wisdom, our words and actions overflow with love and joy.

Kelly also shares a powerful story about Mirko, the founder of Opus Footwear—from pushing a stranger up a hill during a charity ride in Las Vegas to building the best skate shoes on the market. His life reminds us that true leadership is about lifting others, often without recognition.

👉 Want to meet Mirko? He’ll be at The VIBE Room, the live version of Kelly’s podcast happening November 5 in Carlsbad, CA. You never know who you’ll be sitting next to—sometimes, it’s the very person who will help you start asking the right questions.
