This weekend, I watched “The Wild Robot” and found myself unexpectedly moved by its profound message about who we truly are—and who we can become when we dare to break free from our programming.
The story follows Roz, a robot who finds herself in an unfamiliar environment, tasked with caring for a baby goose. Through this journey, she makes a revolutionary discovery: “We are not restricted by our programming.” She literally rewrites her own code, transforming from a mechanical being into one with deep emotional connections and authentic purpose.
Sound familiar?
As successful business owners, we often operate from our own version of “programming”—the shoulds, the expectations, the carefully constructed systems that got us to where we are. Like Roz, many of us have achieved impressive external results. Yet something feels missing, doesn’t it?
The Power of Heart Connection
Here’s what struck me most: When Roz was later captured and her power supply disconnected, it wasn’t technical intervention that revived her—it was her heart connection to her now-grown gosling. Even when her creators tried to control her, that authentic connection proved more powerful than any external programming.
I see this same transformation in my clients all the time. Like the marketing expert who discovered her true genius wasn’t in social media execution but in strategic vision. Or the financial advisor who found that bringing her whole self—including her spiritual side—into her practice didn’t diminish her success but amplified it.
Breaking Free from Limited Thinking
The truth is, you are more than you think you are. More than your role as the responsible one. More than the successful business owner who has it all figured out. More than the programming that tells you to maintain the status quo because it’s “working.”
Just as Roz’s heart could communicate beyond conventional programming, your inner wisdom is already speaking to you. That feeling that there’s something more? It’s not dissatisfaction with your success—it’s recognition of your potential for deeper alignment.
Your Next Evolution
Consider this: What if the very qualities that make you successful—your drive, your vision, your ability to see possibilities others miss—are just the surface of your true capabilities? What if your next level of impact requires not more doing, but a deeper connection to who you really are?
You don’t have to dismantle everything you’ve built to evolve. Like Roz, you can rewrite your programming while honoring your journey. You can lead from both strength and heart. You can create success that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.
