Description

The moment you level up, the doubts level up too. We tackle that head-on with a lively, honest conversation about the “devil at every level” the way new goals awaken old fears and the tools that actually move you forward when motivation goes missing. 

With three friends who coach for a living and laugh for sanity, we explore what it looks like to leave a secure career, build a business from scratch, and still hit publish when perfectionism flares.

We dig into the upper limit problem and the internal thermostat that snaps you back to familiar comfort. You’ll hear how perfectionism shows up as a sign, not a standard; why fifty takes of a thirty‑second reel is a trap; and how commitment beats moods when it counts. We share small, concrete systems decide ahead of time, act small, measure the gains that make progress inevitable. 

Belief is a lagging indicator, not the starter pistol. Break goals into tractable actions, detach your identity from outcomes, and let experience recalibrate your limits.  If you’re sitting on a goal because the fear feels bigger than your confidence, this is your nudge to move, imperfectly and on purpose.

If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs the push, and leave a review to help more people find these conversations. What ceiling are you choosing to challenge this week?
