If you're waiting to feel confident, prepared, or fully equipped before you go after your goal — this episode is your wake-up call.

In this raw and honest solo show, I'm sharing lessons from a recent experience hosting the very first gala for the Dagny Foundation — including what it taught me about discomfort, asking for help, scrappy problem-solving, and why we often stay stuck by thinking the same old thoughts.

I'll walk you through the biggest mindset shifts that helped me get through something I didn't feel ready for — and how those same shifts apply directly to your goals. If you've ever felt unqualified, overwhelmed, or afraid to start, this is the conversation you need to hear.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

✅ Why waiting to feel ready keeps you stuck ✅ How discomfort can actually be a green light for growth ✅ Why asking for help is your power move, not your weakness ✅ Real examples of resourcefulness in action ✅ How to stop thinking inside the same limiting mental box ✅ Why what you're dreading is almost never as bad as it seems

Listener Challenge:

• Ask for help this week — even if it feels awkward.

• Do one uncomfortable thing you've been avoiding.

• Brainstorm 3 "stupid" ideas — and act on one of them.
