EP 56: Being Seen Trying Is The Braves Thing You Will Ever Do
START BEFORE YOU'RE READY — IT MIGHT JUST CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
In Episode 56 of The Mapuana Reed Show, I'm diving deep into the messy, magical, and oh-so-vulnerable journey of starting something before you're ready. Whether it's launching a podcast, building a new business (like I'm doing with Malama Rituals!), or following a creative nudge—you don't need permission, perfection, or a polished plan. You just need to begin.
🌱 In this solo episode, I talk about:
✔️ Cultural conditioning and why women wait
✔️ The inner critic, comparison, and imposter syndrome
✔️ Why starting scared is better than not starting at all
✔️ Letting yourself be seen in the process
✔️ Why your first version is not your final version
✔️ How I'm building my new brand Malama Rituals in real-time
