Another Way

Feeling ready to take the leap? But how do you know if it really IS the right time?


Listen Later

Wow, last week’s Pep-Talk - ‘Are you feeling ready for change?’ - was a popular one! And so this week I decided to follow on from that and talk about the big moment when you stop circling, stop tweaking, stop saying “one day”… and finally decide to take that leap of faith and go after that big dream.

I’m right there myself. After 20 years of one-to-one coaching - a career I’ve loved and still believe I was born to do - I’m closing the doors on my 1:1 coaching business this October to focus full-time on building my journals business. It’s exciting, terrifying, and completely the right move.

And here’s the thing: fear will always come along for the ride. Our brains are hardwired to resist change, so your inner Shitty Committee will throw every reason at you not to do it. But that fear isn’t a stop sign - it’s simply a sign that you’re stepping into the unknown.

In this episode, I’m sharing:

* How to tell when it’s really time to leap (and when to hold back)

* The role fear plays in every big change

* The one question to ask yourself before you jump

* Why you’ll never have a perfectly mapped-out plan - and why that’s okay

If you’re standing on the edge of a dream, this one’s for you!

Links & Ways to Work With Me:

* 1:1 Coaching Strategy Sessions – There are a few spots left before I close my 1:1 practice in October.

* Let’s Make It Happen – My brand new 3-month group coaching adventure, starting September - join the waitlist here if you’re interested in finding out more
