In this episode, I explore how self-trust gets quietly conditioned out of us — often early, often lovingly — and why so many capable women wait not because they’re unsure, but because they don’t yet trust themselves to be okay if things don’t work out.

We talk about how caution became mistaken for wisdom, how certainty replaced self-relationship, and what rebuilding real self-trust actually looks like.

If you’ve been delaying a decision you already understand, second-guessing yourself more than usual, or waiting for a feeling of “readiness” that never quite arrives, this episode will help you name what’s really happening — without pressure.

Your desires aren’t unrealistic.

If you have the desire (especially if it keeps returning) it’s usually a sign that it’s possible and meant for you.

But here’s the part most people miss:

Just because something is meant for you doesn’t mean you’re the version of you who can hold it yet.

In this episode, I explore why desire isn’t a problem to solve or a fantasy to dismiss; it’s an initiation into identity growth. We talk about the quiet cost of waiting, why clarity often comes after choice, and how your desires are asking you to become someone new rather than stay comfortable.

If you’ve been questioning what you want, delaying a decision you already understand, or wondering why something keeps calling you back, this episode will help you see it differently.

Do you ever just get caught up in the daily grind of running a business or chasing your dreams? Or maybe you get so wrapped up in the pressure of having it all figured out that you lose sight of your why? If either of those resonates with you, this is an episode you don’t want to miss. (It became a fast favorite of mine).

Follow along as I chat with Jason Goldberg. Jason is a life coach and business mentor I first connected with at an event I hosted in Texas last month. When I tell you that I was immediately drawn to his positive energy and welcoming spirit, I’m not lying. (You’ll know what I’m talking about mere minutes into the episode). I was blown away by his story going from an anxious and depressed child to an incredibly inspiring (and truly happy) life coach. His secret? Maintaining a spirit of play in his life and business.

So, you can count on this episode being full of joy, play, and fun, in addition to great advice that can truly change the way you live your life or run your business. Listen as we talk about everything from Jason’s childhood struggles with food, anxiety, and depression to how humor and empathy helped him change his life for the better. Jason also shares his journey going from a successful, albeit unfulfilled, career in the corporate world to entering the world of personal growth and coaching. He even names the very books that changed his perception of personal development.

I ask Jason to detail his journey of personal transformation. He does that and so much more. Through sharing his experience, he offers valuable advice to anyone feeling a little lost on their journey as he explains the transformative power of insight. He also reveals the mindset shift that allowed him to fully step into his calling as a coach, explaining the importance of being service-oriented.

As if that’s not incredible enough, Jason goes on to share his brilliant “3 B” model for showing up confident on sales calls and his best advice for creating a successful coaching program. I was blown away by what he shared, and I know you can greatly benefit from all he has to offer. I’m also obsessed with his advice for keeping the spirit of play alive and well in both your life and business (and I’m confident you will be too).

This episode explores failures as much as it does successes, connecting the dots between the two in such a beautiful way. By the end of this episode, I hope you can start to shift the way you look at trauma and failure, using them as tools to build you up rather than tear you down. (It’ll make more sense after you listen, I promise).

This episode is jam-packed with motivational insight and actionable advice. So, do yourself a favor, grab a pen and a notebook, and get cozy. Trust me. You’re going to want to take notes as you listen to this incredible episode.

(The original episode aired May 27, 2021, but it was so good that we wanted to make sure to share it again!)
