Takeaways:

🧭 Fear isn’t a stop sign—it’s a compass. Dr. Jacqueline Hyde reminds us that fear isn’t here to hold us back—it’s pointing us in the direction of growth, change, and everything we’re meant to explore.

🚪 What if your ‘forbidden’ desires weren’t actually wrong? We unpack how society dictates what we should and shouldn’t pursue, and how breaking those rules can lead to real freedom.

💡 You’re not as stuck as you think. So many of us feel boxed in by what we think is possible. This episode is about realizing that your dreams aren’t off-limits.

🎓 It’s never too late. Dr. Hyde shares her journey of earning a doctorate later in life, proving that self-imposed limits are just stories we tell ourselves. Rewrite the story.

⚡ Trust yourself. Your gut instincts? They matter. We talk about how hesitation keeps us stuck, and why taking action is always more powerful than waiting for permission.

🔍 Exploring the ‘forbidden’ leads to deep personal growth. When we stop fearing the unknown and start learning, questioning, and exploring, we find clarity, purpose, and a whole new level of understanding ourselves.
