| 0:15.6 | of sending that email, you chickened out. |
| 0:19.2 | You know the internal dialogue that shows up in those moments. I'm not |
| 0:23.1 | qualified enough. I don't have enough education or experience. That person would never want to talk to me, |

| 1:46.4 | decision-making so you can take that courageous step forward into your ideal future self. |
