You know that feeling when you want to move forward, but something keeps stopping you? Maybe it’s doubt, perfectionism, or a little voice that says, But what if I can’t make it happen? What if I don’t know how? Before you know it, days, weeks, or even years pass—and the life that you want remains out of reach, quietly gathering dust on the shelf.
This episode is all about finding your way back to possibility. Resistance is sneaky, and it shows up in ways we don’t even realize—like endlessly planning, waiting for the “perfect” time, or moping around for hours because “it won’t happen so why try”. But here’s the truth: the life that you want can happen, but you need to take action.
If you’ve been feeling stuck, uninspired, or doubting whether your dream is even possible, this episode is here to remind you: it absolutely is.
Hit play and let’s get you moving forward. 🎧✨
Key Nuggets to Get You Moving Forward
Resistance is sneaky when it disguises itself as productivity. Ever found yourself researching the “perfect” tool, organizing your workspace, or scrolling for inspiration instead of actually doing the thing? That’s resistance in disguise. It convinces you that you’re making progress when really, it’s just delaying action. The fastest way out? Recognize it for what it is and then take any small step forward.
Perfectionism is just fear in a fancy outfit. The thought “What if I do it wrong?” or “What if it’s not as good as so-and-so’s?” are like weights that hold you back from showing up. To get free, ask yourself: So what?
So what if I do it wrong?
So what if it’s not as good?
You’ll find that the root of the answer is some iteration of: “then I’ll have a better idea of how to do it next time”.
You’ll learn, refine, and grow only by putting it out there.
Clarity comes from action, not overthinking. You don’t need to see the whole path—you just need to take the next step. Many of the most successful people started without knowing exactly where they were headed, but movement created momentum. When you take action, even in uncertainty, the next step will always reveal itself.
