The Daily Ascent

Ep. 49 | What Happens When You Stop Deciding You Can't Do Things


Listen Later

In today's episode, I'm talking about what happens when we stop assuming we're incapable and let ourselves stay with discomfort long enough to learn.

I share a personal story about facing a skill I wanted to avoid and what it taught me about self-trust and growth.

We'll explore spiritual growth, emotional recovery, and a powerful reading from Keep It Simple about willingness and progress.

Question to carry into your day: Where might you be deciding you "can't," without ever letting yourself find out?
