Summary

This espresso shot solo episode is an excerpt from my recent Masterclass: 2024: Your Breakthrough Year. I’ll have a few of these coming out over the next few weeks!

We explore the impact of fear and resistance on progress and the transformative power of embracing discomfort. I also share the transformation that a dragonfly undergoes and how we can learn from it by utilizing pain for personal transformation.

0:07.6	Today I'm coming at you with an espresso shot of a solo episode.
0:14.2	People pleasing or even dishonesty with self, fear.
0:20.0	These are all predicated on and operate from the basis of this
0:25.1	idea that I'm not enough, operating from a lack of self-worth. What happens is that
0:31.6	when we're operating from a place of I'm not enough, our decisions will often reinforce that because if right now,
0:40.8	let's just say we haven't got here yet, but let's just say we're starting right now and we say
