Feeling called to coach others but constantly questioning if you're ready? You're not alone. This deeply resonant exploration reveals why "readiness" isn't something that magically happens to you—it's a decision you make followed by action.

Through candid personal stories, we share how we both sabotaged our own growth by convincing ourselves we weren't ready. Mark postponed coach certification for two years while Teresa nearly passed up a career-defining opportunity in sustainability leadership. Both situations exposed the same truth: waiting to feel ready often makes things worse, not better.

We demystify what it means to be an "expert," revealing the surprising legal definition that requires just 10% more knowledge than the general public. This perspective shift liberates you from the burden of perfection and highlights that your unique experiences already qualify you to help others. Whether you've overcome health challenges, career transitions, or personal struggles, that journey contains wisdom someone else desperately needs.

The clarity and confidence you're seeking won't come from endless preparation—they emerge through taking action, especially when it feels uncomfortable. Your brain naturally creates protective barriers disguised as logical reasons to delay: waiting for the perfect timing, more credentials, or external validation. Recognizing these patterns allows you to move past them into your true potential.
