  • “...well, it's just that your level of confidence...”

    Woah. I had to pause when my podcast mentor casually said these words on our call. And to be honest: they struck me deeply.

  • Can you think of one (yes, just one) business decision you’ve been avoiding?

    Hiring a team member? Rebranding your business? Raising your prices?

    Because here’s the deal: Making a decision, any decision, is a sign of progress, growth, and self-trust. It means you’re taking action and moving forward, rather than staying stuck in indecision.
