Summary

Raise your hand if you’re a quitter! Oh, you’re not??  Fantastic. While it’s likely that you wouldn’t identify as a quitter, you probably feel like quitting things on a regular basis.  Annnnd, it's possible you actually do quit things sometimes – maybe even on a regular basis.  We quit diets and workout programs and books and friendships and jobs and clubs and committees and marriages. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes quitting is 100% the right move. See link below for my episode on the merits of being a quitter! But, sometimes we need to pull up our big girl pants and SHOW UP and POWER THROUGH and DO HARD THINGS. On these days, when we can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel and we’re not sure there will ever be a pay off for our valiant efforts, we need some skills to keep us going.  This episode will give you the skills you need to keep moving forward, to keep taking action, to prove to yourself that you are a powerful, resilient, tenacious badass who gets what she wants and needs out of life. Cause you actually ARE that lady already. I know it. Let me show you.
