Description

We'd love to hear from you!

The path we want isn’t always the easiest one. Our brains are wired to seek comfort and avoid risk. It’s a survival instinct—but it also keeps us stuck. Growth often asks us to lean into what feels uncomfortable—whether that’s having a hard conversation, starting something new, or pushing through resistance. In this episode, we’ll talk about why discomfort is often a sign of progress, not a signal to stop.
