Are you struggling to get started? Discover how to overcome your stuckness by exploring why starting new projects can feel impossible and how you can break through your inertia. Whether you're planning a private practice, group therapy sessions, or an online course, host Josephine Hughes dives deep into an understanding of what's holding you back.

In today's episode

  • How feeling overwhelmed, lacking confidence, and not knowing where to start are common challenges that can prevent people from getting started on projects.
  • Breaking tasks down into smaller steps and seeking support and guidance can help overcome these challenges.
  • Acknowledging and overcoming fears of judgment and rejection is important for moving forward with projects.
  • Prioritising projects, making time for them, and taking small actions can lead to progress and success.
  • Every step taken brings one closer to achieving their goals.
