Summary

We’ve all heard the saying: “Start before you’re ready.” But how often do we really take that advice to heart? Today’s episode is a little different—and really special—because I’m taking you inside Chapter 15 of my book, How Are You, Really. Grab your copy at http://howareyoureallybook.com!  In this chapter, I dive deep into the fear of starting imperfectly, finding the courage to take that first step toward your dreams, and why taking messy, brave action—despite your doubts—is the secret to growth. Whether you’re launching a new business, starting a podcast, or pursuing a passion that’s been on your heart, this chapter is all about embracing the imperfection that comes with the journey. And trust me, I know a thing or two about that. Starting this podcast was anything but perfect, but here we are, over 800 episodes later, proof that action creates clarity. If launching a podcast has been on your heart but you’re not sure where to begin, join my free training at http://freepodcastclass.com,where I walk you through Podcasting 101: How to Start, Record, and Profit from Your Show! I’m living proof that you don’t need perfection to get going—you just need to take that first step. Save your free seat at http://freepodcastclass.com!
