Discipline vs. Avoidance: The Hard Work of Leading Yourself


Listen Later

Avoidance might feel safe—but discipline is what builds the life and business you actually want. In this episode of Rise + Refine, we're diving into what it really means to lead yourself well, especially when no one's watching.

We talk about the subtle ways avoidance disguises itself as "being productive," how to identify when you're stuck in busywork instead of progress, and why self-discipline is the foundation of long-term success as a business owner. From difficult conversations to uncomfortable decisions, this episode is a reminder that leadership starts with accountability—to yourself first.

Whether you're an entrepreneur, team leader, or creative building something from the ground up, this conversation will help you spot avoidance, embrace discipline, and finally move the needle on what matters most.

🎧 Tune in to Rise + Refine to learn how to stop avoiding the work—and start leading yourself through it.
