What if the thing you want is still completely possible, but the way you get there looks nothing like what you imagined? This episode started with a conversation about my son choosing a college major and my sudden realization that my husband and I were giving him advice based on the tiny database of possibilities that we know exist. And then I realized something slightly uncomfortable. I do the exact same thing to myself. We think we’re looking at this huge field of possibilities for our live...
We say we want a sign. From God. From the universe. From our intuition. Anything that tells us, Yes, this is the thing. Go do it. But if we’re being real, most of us don’t actually want a sign. We want a freaking billboard. We want to know what to do, how to do it, whether it will work, what people will think, and preferably how the whole thing turns out before we take the first step.

I left a seven-figure business at 45, started over, launched this podcast, and began building something I genuinely care about...
Who decided I was behind? If you've ever looked around and thought... "Everyone else seems further ahead than me." This episode is for you. This week, I'm unpacking something I've been quietly carrying myself: the feeling that somehow I'm behind. Behind financially. Behind professionally.
