Summary
April 25th, 2022 marks five years since I released Powerhouse Woman and it feels incredible to look back on how much this community has grown since then. As I'm approaching this anniversary, I'm noticing a theme that's coming up in the groups that I'm involved in and retreats that I've hosted recently. So many women have this undeniable feeling inside that they're meant for more, but maybe they're pushing up against confusion on where to start, what the right step is, or even feeling paralyzed by the thought of making the wrong choice. I know those thought patterns all too well, and in today's episode, I'm sharing four tips that helped me take that big leap five years ago and just start. I share how to build your confidence, breathwork exercises that help me gain clarity, and ways to capitalize on your skillset.
In this episode we talk about:
- How to tap into your bigger vision and get moving in the right direction
- My journey with starting this podcast
- Why it's more important to take the first step instead of waiting for the perfect time to start
- Deciding if you prefer to dip your toes in the water, or cannon ball into the deep end
- Sitting with the question, "What do I really want to do?"
- Being honest about where you tend to take yourself out of the game
- Figuring out what you can monetize
