It's the PASSION PANTS RANT....
Ever find yourself standing at the bottom of a metaphorical hill, overwhelmed by all the reasons why you can't or shouldn't climb it? That's exactly where transformation begins.
Looking through voice notes from 2015 after being made redundant, Kristen discovered a powerful through-line in my life's work that remains unchanged a decade later. The message is simple yet profound: when faced with a challenge, you have a black and white decision to make. You either take that step forward or you don't. You jump or you stay put.
What struck me most was how this fundamental belief has guided every aspect of my journey from corporate designer to business owner. After signing for a vineyard and facing redundancy a month later, I had to decide: return to a job I hated or leap into entrepreneurship. The decision to climb that hill to get uncomfortable, invest in myself, and build something from scratch changed everything.
This isn't about demanding perfection. It's about understanding that one step forward is infinitely more valuable than standing still making excuses. The women in my Evolution program didn't join because they knew they'd succeed. They jumped because they knew they had to try, despite past disappointments and fears.
My rowing coach once told me something I'll never forget: "You don't demand anything of anybody. You just step up and they step up with you." That's the philosophy behind everything I do. I won't challenge you to do something I haven't done myself, but I will absolutely push you to recognise your own capacity for growth.
So here's my Passion Pants Rant for you today: Whatever you're procrastinating on, whatever you're telling yourself you're not good enough to accomplish—take that first step. The view from halfway up the hill is already better than the bottom.
Ready to climb? Let's go.
