You know what you need to do. You've listened to the podcasts, read the books, took the courses.

Yet you're still not doing it.

I call this the action gap. It's the space between knowing and doing. And honestly? It's making you miserable.

In this episode, I'm breaking down why willpower alone won't close this gap and what you need to do instead. I'm sharing real examples from my own business (like why I kept making stories instead of viral reels, even though I know better) and giving you the exact framework to simplify your actions so you actually follow through.

Stop waiting for motivation. Start hacking your own system.

PS To help you close your action gaps, you need a week planning that works for you, your life and your business. I have an Ideal Week Planner template I use every 3 months to see if my standard planning still works for me. If you'd like access to this template + ChatGPT prompt to make your own perfect planning, you can download it here: fastforwardamy.com/weekplanner

I almost didn't start this podcast. I postponed it twice in 2020 because I was terrified no one would listen. Or worse, that they'd listen and hate it. But since then, that scary decision has led to over 1 million downloads, four podcasts, and over 8 million in online sales.

In this episode, I'm sitting in a podcast studio in LA after interviewing one of the biggest names in online marketing, and I'm thinking about how none of this would exist if I hadn't been willing to suck at something first. I'm also announcing that I changed the podcast name twice in 2023 because I've realized something crucial: we can't win without failing first.

This is about why being afraid to be a beginner again is the biggest barrier to your next level of success. If you've been holding back on something because you're "too established" to start from scratch, this one's for you.

"Selling is icky." I hear this from entrepreneurs all the time. You love helping people, but you hate selling.

I get it. Sales can feel pushy, sleazy, gross. But deep down we all know: sales are the fuel of your business. Without sales, there's no cash flow. Without cash flow, there's no business at all.

In this episode, I'm sharing my six best tips for making sales feel less icky and more like serving. We're talking about reframing your perspective on what sales actually is, shifting from product-focused to person-focused, giving value before asking for anything in return, and why "show don't sell" might be the best advice I've ever received.

If you're currently struggling with sales and feeling like they’re not moving the way you want, download my free selling checklist at fastforwardamy.com/sellingchecklist. It'll help you figure out if you're focusing on the right things or missing obvious opportunities.
