Curious Enough To Try

It’s easy to want the finished version of something. The business. The podcast. The promotion. The book. The new career.

But do you actually want what it takes to get there?

In this episode, I’m talking about the difference between wanting something and liking the idea of it, how much outside validation can affect how we feel about what we’re doing, and why actually trying something will teach you more than thinking about it ever will.

Because sometimes you try something and realize you want it even more. Sometimes you realize you want a different version of it. And sometimes you finally admit you never really wanted it at all.

Starting something new is exciting. Continuing when the excitement wears off? That’s a different story.

This week, one simple question about my business sent me straight into self-doubt. Will people actually pay for this? At the same time, I found myself decorating a peacock chair for my sister’s bridal shower with absolutely no idea what I was doing. I realized how differently we approach trying something new when we don’t feel like the outcome says something about us.

In this episode, I’m talking about what happens after you start, when doubt creeps in, other people’s questions get in your head, and you don’t know yet if what you’re doing is actually going to work.

Maybe you don’t need to know yet. Maybe you just need to try the next thing and see what happens.

What if you know you want something different, but you have absolutely no idea what that is?

In this episode, I’m talking about why “I don’t know” doesn’t mean you’re lost, why the things that catch your attention might be giving you clues, and how to stop putting so much pressure on yourself to have the next five years figured out.

Sometimes you don’t need an answer yet. You need to start paying attention to what makes you interested, curious, or excited again.

What’s the thing you keep saying you want to do but haven’t actually tried?

In this episode, I’m talking about why we turn ideas into huge decisions before we’ve even started, how preparation can quietly become procrastination, and why trying something small can give you more clarity than thinking about it for another six months.

You don’t need to know if it will work. You just need to get close enough to find out.
