Ever felt that nervous flutter in your stomach when a new opportunity comes up? This week, we are digging into what it means to say yes—especially when it feels scary but exciting at the same time. They share how to tell if a new opportunity aligns with your values, why we sometimes talk ourselves out of things we deeply want, and how to practically and strategically pursue growth without stretching yourself too thin. If you’ve ever felt stuck between wanting more and doubting your readiness, this one’s for you.

 

Today we cover:

• How to recognize the “good” nervousness that signals it’s time to say yes
• Practical steps for evaluating new opportunities through a values lens
• Why women often hide behind “not having enough time”—and how to see through it
• The role of fear, self-doubt, and imposter syndrome in decision-making
• How to build the confidence muscle to keep saying yes to the right things
