Failure does not exist, it's just data. It's going to make you question a lot of things about yourself, if you're capable, if it's worth it.

What do you successful people have that people who don't make it, don't have?

**Coral Santoro** (0:10)
They keep going, even when it stops being exciting.

How do we stop comparing our timeline to everyone else's?

**Coral Santoro** (0:17)
Success does not have a finish line, so we can't compare something that does not exist. Once you believe you are better than anyone else, you're done.

Coral Santoro, welcome to On Purpose. It's great to have you here.

**Coral Santoro** (0:33)
Thank you so much for having me. I'm so excited.

Coral, I've been such a fan of yours from afar. We don't know each other. We just met today. But I've been following your content. It's always direct. It's clear. The message is easy to understand, easy to apply.
There are millions of people across the world that are following you, learning from you. You just told me that the number one Google question about you is, is Coral Santoro AI?

**Coral Santoro** (0:57)
Well, I think we all in this room can confirm that I'm not. I'm not sure yet. I'm not sure. Is Jay Shetty doing the first hologram ever?

**Jay Shetty** (1:05)
No, I would not do an AI.

**Coral Santoro** (1:07)
I love it. Yeah, I'm very much real.

**Jay Shetty** (1:10)
How does that make you feel when people are asking that question?

**Coral Santoro** (1:12)
It is so funny because I'm in the actual tech space. I develop softwares. I'm in an AI and when they started asking me about these things, I'm like, it makes sense. But at the same time, as soon as I started posting more content, a lot of the people started realizing it was not. I still get a few questions here and there, but it was mostly about me coming into the space of social media. Because what I do is the fun side of my life. What I actually do is tech. So I came into this space and I understood it because no one had seen me before.
In this moment that we are, you don't know what's real or what's not. So I kind of understood it and that's the point that I understood. I had to go more into stories, show people a little bit here and there about me being real. Honestly, it was funny and me being the first interview here, and I'm super happy that people get to see that I'm a real person.

**Jay Shetty** (2:00)
Absolutely. Talk to me about, if someone listens to this episode today, what do you want them to walk away with? What do you want them to feel? How do you want them to change their life?

**Coral Santoro** (2:11)
To be honest, just like the name of the podcast, Purpose, I got into social media and everything that you see. I got into this space because I didn't want people to feel behind in life because of what they see. I feel like nowadays we can get confused very easily. The men's side, I was talking about this the other day, if you are not flaunting cash outside of Lamborghini and doing all these things that you see, you're behind. If you're a woman, if you don't have a Birkin bag and if you don't have a bouquet of roses that was out of a jet, oh my gosh, I don't have the right person. That is not real life. I hated the romanticism that we're seeing in entrepreneurship, just because real life is not doing a Canva template and saying to people, do this course and you'll be financially free. Then people believe that and that's not real life. We all have struggles, we all go through things in our lives, even if it's relationships or work.
I want people that every time they listen to something, it's purpose, you're not behind, you're on track, you're not in a race with anyone. That's why I love so much everything that you portray, and that's why I wanted to come here so much, because this is real life. I feel like the type of content that we put out, everyone relates in a different way. I feel like we're all in the same boat, but we all have different destinations. At the end of the day, we all have problems. In this room, we all have a problem.
And it's not rare, but it's just how we can get support from now online. So beautiful things that I follow a lot of the guests that have been here and have a voice. And I feel like we all have a voice and we all have a story. And if we can put it out there, and people can relate in their own way, I think that's the purpose of life.
