✅ Key Takeaways:

• Awareness is the first step to change: You can’t fix what you don’t see. Identifying hidden fears and blocks is essential to moving forward.
• Limiting beliefs create invisible ceilings: These often form in childhood or after major life transitions and quietly shape your decisions.
• Fear of judgment and failure hold women back: Many women wait for permission or perfection instead of starting imperfectly.
• You’re allowed to want more: Prioritizing your own desires and well-being doesn’t mean you’re selfish—it means you’re finally showing up for yourself.
• Guilt and decision fatigue are silent dream killers: Learn to release past regret and simplify your choices so you can act with confidence and intention.
