Ep 184: The Best Thing About Anticipation


Listen Later

When was the last time you booked a haircut, a massage, or something else just for you? Do you remember the moment of relief right after you hit confirm or hung up the call, when you felt good even though nothing had actually happened yet? You hadn’t gotten the hair cut or seen the result, yet something shifted the moment you decided.

That’s anticipation, and it's one of the most underrated and underused tools available to us. Today, I explore what the act of looking forward to something has to do with the work of becoming your favorite you. 

If you’ve been on the fence about doing something for yourself—something meaningful that could genuinely change how you move through your life—I want you to hear this episode before you spend one more day waiting. Because the good feeling doesn't have to wait. It starts the moment you decide.
