Have you ever wanted to keep your 'small' beginnings hidden in effort to avoid shame or embarrassment? Being a 'beginner' at something can feel scary. Whether it's a new business, project, or phase of your life that you are beginning again, it's vulnerable to feel like you don't know anything! If you've ever experienced these feelings of Imposter Syndrome creeping in, this episode is for you. Listen in as Mary chats with author and founder of the ethical fashion brand, Sseko Designs, Liz Forkin Bohannon, as Liz invites us to lean into the strength of being a beginner. You'll learn what spurred Liz on to create Sseko Designs, why having an opinion is different than having a passion, and the truth behind the 'fake it til you make it' movement. Liz is flipping the script on the shame that can surround feeling like a beginner, and uncovers how to choose curiosity over criticism. If you feel like a beginner today, you're in the right place, because you are right where you are supposed to be.

Beginner's Pluck: Why Being a Beginner Can Be Your Biggest Strength with Liz Forkin Bohannon

How do I overcome the FEAR that it's too late to chase a dream? How do I get out of being STUCK in perfectionism, worrying that people will judge me, and being caught up in comparison and self doubt? How do I stay motivated and stop procrastinating out of fear of failure, always feeling unprepared and unqualified before I even begin? How do I prioritize and start making consistent progress on my goals and dreams with highly successful habits, discipline, and focus? And the biggest question of all, how do I OWN my muddy story with bravery, courage, conviction and faith?  

If you have ever asked yourself these questions, take a deep breath, because you're in the right place.

Welcome to the Mary Marantz Show. Where we answer ALL those questions and more! A space to own the muddy parts of your story, build things that matter, and where slow growth always equals strong roots. 

Listen in each week as host, Mary Marantz, brings you honest conversations and her best tips about business, relationships, faith, goals & more... where we feel the fear and move forward anyway.

Along with serving her best business and life tips, you'll also hear motivating interviews from some of the best in the industry -  authors, speakers, leaders, and entrepreneurs like Natalie Franke, Jess Connolly, Jessica Honegger and more– to bring you one step closer to your goals.

You'll learn business strategies to more effectively serve your audience, receive inspiration to dig deeper and find freedom in relationships, and learn how to build a legacy that lasts.

You're here and you have scars. You're here and you have dirt in your story. You're here and you're afraid both of those disqualify you before you even start.

But you have a place here. Your story already matters.

Because one day, when we get to where it is we're going, it won't be despite these scars we bear. It will always be because of them.

Slow growth equals Strong roots.
