In this episode, I share a triple shot of mindset fuel:

☕ The Coffee Identity Crisis

It’s 7:24 AM and I’m standing at my usual cafe, battling the social pressure of saying “Long Black” instead of my usual mocha. Why is this so hard? Because even our smallest rituals get reinforced by the people around us. Even our baristas expect us to stay the same.

👷‍♀️ The Rate Buster Problem

Ever been told to "slow down" because you're making others look bad? I discovered the term rate buster and wow—it explains so much. If you're the kind of person who adopts AI, works faster, shares shortcuts... you might be disrupting more than you think. So, how do you lead without alienating?

💸 Return on I

This one’s about sales, self-trust, and why people really don’t buy what you’re selling. It’s not about price—it's about whether they believe they can create value from what you offer. This flips everything, right?

And I’ve got three reflection questions for you:

1. Who are the people around you expecting you to be?
2. Are you dimming your light to make others comfortable?
3. When you invest in yourself, are you backing yourself to do something with it?
