110: I Once Was the Fly | Why Trying Harder Isn’t Always the Answer


Listen Later

In this episode, I’m bringing you behind the scenes of my real-time growth journey—the mindset shifts and the patterns I’m breaking.

We’re talking about the trap of “trying harder” … and why that might actually be the thing keeping you stuck and dragging you into burnout.

I share a powerful story from the book You² that cracked something open for me, plus a deeply personal experience where I realized I had been the fly—working harder, pushing faster, and still hitting the same invisible glass.

If you’ve ever felt like no matter how much you do, it’s still not enough… this one is for you.

This episode is about:

  • Letting go of force and over-effort
  • Recognizing when the “glass” will never break
  • Finding the open door (and actually choosing it)
  • And redefining what enough really looks like in this next level of your life

I’m also sharing what this is shifting for me in real time—in my business, my energy, and how I’m creating my most peaceful, profitable, and aligned year yet.

If you’re ready for a different way… this is your invitation.
