So often we tell ourselves we need more time—but what we really need is more discipline. In this episode of Block Out the Noise, Jessica shares why waiting is a thief of progress, how a clear plan becomes your lifeline when emotions spike, and what it actually looks like to build momentum day by day. You’ll hear a powerful client story (night-and-day change in one semester), hard truths from Jay Shetty’s wife on discipline, and a simple formula you can use immediately: Discipline + Action + Plan + Support = Transformation.

✨ In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• Why “later” keeps you stuck (and how to break the cycle today)
• The real role of discipline when anxiety and overwhelm show up
• How to build a plan that removes in-the-moment decision fatigue
• Mindset shifts that turn consistency into confidence
• What evidence-building looks like (and why it’s the key to self-trust)
• The honest truth about motivation vs. action (and how to start anyway)
• How the 90 Day Courage Challenge gives you structure, coaching, and community so you’re not doing this alone

Later has stolen more dreams than failure ever could. We tell ourselves, “I’ll do it tomorrow,” but weeks turn into years, and anxiety keeps us stuck in the same patterns.

In this episode, Jessica Davis (licensed therapist, mindset coach, and creator of the Courage Method) introduces the 90-Day Courage Challenge — a step-by-step system designed to help you move past fear and into action.

You’ll learn why courage isn’t the absence of fear but action in the middle of fear, and how daily support, accountability, and community can change the way you see yourself in just 90 days.

✨ In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• Why “later” is anxiety’s favorite trap
• The 3-month roadmap to building lasting courage
• How small, 5-minute actions stack into life-changing confidence
• The role of community in keeping momentum alive
• Why failure isn’t the end, but the proof that you’re growing
• What to expect if you join the challenge starting October 3rd

This isn’t about waiting until you’re ready — it’s about becoming ready through action. For just $97 (about $1/day), you’ll have structure, daily encouragement, and a supportive group to walk alongside you. If you’re one of the first 10 to join, you’ll also receive a free 30-minute Jumpstart Coaching Call with Jessica.
