EP.83: What To Do When You Don't FEEL Like Showing Up | The Ambitious Podcast
Description
In this episode of Ambitious, we tackle a common struggle every entrepreneur faces: how to show up and perform even when motivation is lacking. We explore the inner negotiation that happens when you just don't want to do the tasks laid out by your ambitious self and how to handle the ensuing shame spiral. I share personal experiences and strategies to push through those tough days with micro-goals and perspective shifts. Additionally, we talk about the importance of understanding your values, recognizing the impact of your energy levels, and the significance of separating your mood from your mission. Whether it's the influence of hormonal cycles, external stress, or just an off day, this episode covers how to maintain progress and commitment toward your goals while also giving yourself grace.
